All of the update repositories are enabled except for pre-release. I
really don't want to do any beta testing that I can avoid.

I'm not sure what you mean by "crazy", and I don't want to say anything
about the complexity of your work. I'm even willing to go somewhat out
of my way to answer any questions about the problems that I'm able to
understand.

However, fundamentally I'm just a diner who'd like to eat a tasty meal
cooked Ubuntu-style. Lots of us out here, but we have no ambitions to be
master chefs, and if the Ubuntu 'restaurant' is too much hassle, we'll
go back to Windows, even if we're sick and tired of the Microsoft gruel.
Actually, I don't even like the Flash stuff. I'm a content guy and I
find Flash too light and unfilling, but it's heavily used. At least
Adobe seems to be making a sincere effort to support LInux (in strong
contrast to Microsoft's efforts to sabotage or destroy anything they
don't own).

Because of my love of freedom translated into a dislike for Microsoft,
I'm willing to go the extra mile to try to stay with Ubuntu, but I've
already been through a number of experiences of difficulties. I suspect
that many other wannabe users of Ubuntu fell (back to Windows) at each
of those hurdles... This Flash hurdle is one that I've been trying to
get over for a long time.
