What version of Flash is everyone running?  Last november, they released
a new version (9.0) for x86 Linux.

ckwaveFlash

Dunno if it's better or worse.

On a related note, I would be curious to know if anyone has tried Gnash
(http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/), which is some kind of free
software Flash clone.  I have no idea how good it is.
