nspluginwrapper is now in Debian testing, and installing it enable Flash plugin for both Mozilla Seamonkey/Iceape and Firefox/Iceweaseal (using Ubuntu doc, I got only Iceape working) so it is great!

How are you getting on in the 64-bit world? Anything new to report?

Similar plug-in experience. I've got 32-bit Adobe flash and 32-bit RealPlayer, both working perfectly in 32-bit Opera and they both work perfectly in 64-bit Iceape with the plugin wrapper but only RealPlayer works 64-bit Iceweasel!

In Iceweasel about:plugins reports both RealPlayer and Flash are installed correctly, but nothing happens on a page with Flash in.

Have you had any luck in solving it?

Hum, very strange, it worked... but since an upgrade of nspluginwrapper some days ago, it seems to be broken... not good. I haven't really investigate so I have no idea why... i will have to check the snapshot-debian-mirror-or-another-name-i-don't-remember-which-alr eady-save-me-from-a-bad-xen-kernel-upgrade :)

YES, installing version 0.9.91.4-4 of nspluginwrapper from snapshot.debian.net solved my problem: last.fm radio is back ;-)

I see your bug report. For me Flash works fine for Iceape with the latest nspluginwrapper but like you not at all in Iceweasel.

Yes, i have the new 'resolution' (it's correct in english? like new year's resolutions?) to fill bugs when i found ones. Usually, i 'postpone' and never do it.

I think you can say resolution in that way.

I've tried to file bug reports but I've been inconsistent. Like you I think it's better to file reports and try and help rather than grumble without offering anything back.

Fixed my problem. I had AdBlock set to block Flash in Firefox to suppress the pop-up asking to install the Flash Plug-in that I originally couldn't use. Now I've deactivated that, it all works perfectly...

I see there is a comment against your bug report, did their suggestion work on your box?
