Bug Description

flashplugin-nonfree on Jaunty amd 64 is not working properly. Videos on youtube are displayed but for example it is not possible to see clips on tape.tv or the german www.tagesschau.de.

My workaround is as follows:

- remove flashplugin-nonfree and nspluginwrapper
- download flashplayer from adobe labs (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html)
- do a "tar xvfz" on the downloaded file (actual libflashplayer-10.0.22.87.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz)
- copy libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/

Restart firefox and enjoy.
