It works fine for me out of the box.  I have universe and multiverse
enabled.  Do you have any other package that depend on older libruby
packages?  Do you have any non-Ubuntu repositories enabled?



I presume that if there were to be a newer version of the proprietary
flash player made available, installing the flashplugin-nonfree package
would get it for you.  Wherease the flasplayer-nonfree package would
have to be rebuilt.



The gsfonts-x11 package will solve some font problems with the
Macromedia flash player.  I would suggest you install it, too.
