Flash is native 64-bit now.  The flashplugin-nonfree package provides
Adobe's Flash plugin.  Java is available too.  I use OpenJDK
(openjdk-6-jre for Java, icedtea6-plugin for the browser plugin) which
is fully compatible with Java specifications.   Basically, if it runs on
Sun Java, it should run on OpenJDK!

Video drivers depends on your card.  I have a nVidia card, and the
drivers work great.  It's been almost no hassle at all for me (except I
still can't get the system to autodetect when I plug in an external
monitor).
