Flash (mostly) works here using native firefox, linux-flashplugin7 and
nspluginwrapper.  Don't forget to do the
	nspluginwrapper -i /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
as the user you are going to use flash with, and then (re)start firefox.

 You can then go to
	about:plugins
to verify the plugin was registered.  Oh and yes, flash9 can be used like
this too, but it still crashes at least on youtube...  (Well it did on i386,
I didn't try on amd64.)

 HTH,
	Juergen
