Question Flash player in Firefox

Hey people

Newly installed Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron (64-bit) on my PC. The problem is that I can't get Adobe Flash Player working in Firefox 3 Beta 5. I have tried many online guides, but none of them worked for me. Anyone knows how to make this work?
I remember that I got it to work with a guide some days ago, but now I have problems with the flash contents on bwin.com. I cant follow live games :-S.
Any help appreciated.

Greetings
Sixmax

You could try nspluginwrapper, but you will need to rebuild the plugin database.

Or you can use a 32 bit version of Firefox, like I do Smilie

It's a shame that Adobe hasn't yet released a 64 bit version of their plugin, let's see what they're going to do with the upcoming release 10 of Flash Player!!

I've never tried nspluginwrapper, but I've heard voices of instability around that (at least on Gentoo Linux which I am using).
