I found a way to get working Flash using Adobe's experimental 64-bit Flash plugin, but this is not a bug fix. Here it is:
wget http:// download. macromedia. com/pub/ labs/flashplaye r10/flashplayer 10_2_p3_ 64bit_linux_ 111710. tar.gz 2_p3_64bit_ linux_111710. tar.gz mozilla/ plugins/ mozilla/ plugins/ libflashplayer. so /usr/lib/ firefox- addons/ plugins/
tar zxf flashplayer10_
sudo mv libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/
sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/
Before doing this, make sure the flashplugin- installer package is completely removed.
