Bug Description
Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree
Adobe has released a 64 bit version of their flash plugin. It is currently under development, but it should be considered for Jaunty. The current nspluginwrapper method pulls in ia32-libs, a huge package, and nspluginwrapper itself can contain bugs. Performance would be greater, and package maintenance would also be easier.

I'm running the native flash 64bit now in Intrepid without nspluginwrapper. It works great! All the "fail to render" bugs are gone and large flash files like mint.com, youtube.com, and hulu.com work perfectly.
May I suggest replacing the almost unusable flashplugin-nonfree in Intrepid as well?
