Did you uninstall gnash?

It turns out gnash is a selfish pile of bugs. It doesn't work to view flash,
but if it's anywhere on your system it totally hides any other flash player,
and won't even let programs like firefox _see_ it. You have to totally
remove it from the system in order for anything else to have a chance to
work.
