Yup. As others have mentioned, you can try hulu desktop (x86_64) with
64bit flash and it SHOULD work. Not for me. I don't gen an error, I
get the "hulu" overlay (like channel use) but no buffering and no
video, it just sits there forever.

In order to get around the flashy (no pun intended) but bad interface
of hulu desktop, I browse hulu.com and put things in my queue I want
to watch, then bring up hulu desktop. Seems to be a good workaround.
