I'm quite perplexed. I have two Etch machines, and on each of them, Flash
recently stopped working. It worked on both within the past month.
I have these packages installed:
flashplayer-mozilla 9.0.48.0-0.2 Macromedia Flash Player
libflash-mozplugin 0.4.13-8 GPL Flash (SWF) Library -
Mozilla-compatible plugin
libflash0c2 0.4.13-8 GPL Flash (SWF) Library - shared library
and these files:

If I do "about:plugins" from iceweasel, I see
File name: libflash-mozplugin.so
Flash Movie player Version 0.4.12 compatible with Shockwave Flash 4.0
File name: libflashplayer.so
Shockwave Flash 9.0 r48
But if I try to run any Flash movie, I get sent to Adobe to download the
"newest" Flash. This turns out to be 9.0.48.0, which I already have. For
the heck of it, I unpacked that anyway. flashplayer.xpt was identical to
what I already have. libflashplayer.so was not, but installing that didn't
help.
As tests, I've been trying anything at youtube or at the Flash showcase:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/showcase/index.cfm
Youtube videos all seem to fail, and then iceweasel crashes too. Any ideas
what's gone wrong? Thanks.
hi, what usually works for me is to unistall and reinstall. never had
the problem in etch, dont use x but ubuntu on occasion have the problem
and its worked for me. remove and reinstall, dont just download flash
again, maybe thatll help..?
