Bug Description

Since the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 (which I ran through the update tool) flash is no longer working properly with my browsers (Firefox, Opera, etc...). It seems like my mouse cannot select anything on the screen. For example: when trying to play the demo for Machinarium I can no longer click to select anything in the screen It is as though my mouse is not there. The same occurs with HULU. However, if I use the Hulu-desktop, which uses flash, I don't have a problem.

When running firefox from the command line I get the following error as soon as the flash site comes up:

LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nphelix.so [/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nphelix.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32]

which is odd because the helix player should have nothing to do with it and I have realplayer installed and I had no problems under 9.04
