I whish I knew this a couple of hours ago :-/ I had no problems with
installing flashplayer-mozilla and it seems to work well too. Is there a
reason why RestrectedFormats in Wiki

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats#head-29ce85c5f75a6380ed26f1e828c343e54074d6e0

recommends using flashplugin-nonfree, if it has more problems? Maybe
this should be changed? I might try to change it after I get my wiki
username problem sorted out (I'll start another thread for that one :-)

Thanks for helping Scott and Lee.
