Thanks for the tip George. I was also having trouble getting
flashplugin-nonfree actually installed. Kept getting the "download or
license refused". Per your hints, here are the steps I took to get it
installed:
1) sudo dpkg-reconfigure debconf
-- Selected GNOME frontend and "medium", although I imagine any settings
would work
2) sudo rm -rf /var/cache/flashplugin-nonfree
-- I'm not really sure if this step was necessary, but it removed the local
cached version which may have been causing trouble
3) sudo aptitude reinstall flashplugin-nonfree
-- Make sure the path to the local version is blank
-- Accept the license
-- Repeat
Afterwards, I could see in the terminal the the plugin was truely being
downloaded from Adobe, and Flash is now working once again.
