I just install openSUSE 11.4. I also install Flash. I have tried 4 different web browsers, and none of them will display Youtube videos. It just shows a black square where the Youtube should be. It is stranger still, because when I watch a video on Google News which is also an embedded Youtube video, it works fine. Also flash radio (such as BBC radio) works fine. CNN video also works fine. I was using openSUSE 11.3 previously on this same system without any issues. I also tried booting up into VESA mode to rule out Intel driver problems, but it acts the same.

By the way I should have mentioned that I am running 32-bit openSUSE.
So, what I had to do was: delete the ~/.macromedia and ~/.adobe directories, and disable hardware rendering in the Flash configuration settings. It seems to be ok now. I hope.
