I have Ubuntu 9.10 x64 installed, and I installed Ubuntu's 10.1.53.64
flash update.

After erasing .adobe directory in my home directory, flash plays out of
the box in my system.

I also have set System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects to
None.

May anyone provide a link of a web page, where flash doesn't play in
Ubuntu x64, with the above setting?

Thanks,
