if you wanted me to "sudo find / -name flashplugin*.so"
then it did not give any output

NM, I thought whatever followed name required quotes, and saw your end quote.

Flash in general seems problematic on latest image. I watched it install during setup... but can't watch youtube or other flash content now.

Flash always worked in hulu untill this recent reinstall. i don't know about firefox as the resolution for KDE apps just sucks so i never tested them. I just use it as a media center/gateway

I installed using the Snapshot from 18th June and could not watch you tube videos.  I installed flash 10 from the link on Youtube and both Youtube and Hulu now work

Yes, installing the .deb from adobe's website works. just go to youtube and try to play a video, when it prompts you to install the plugin, use the hyperlink which takes you to adobe's website. choose the .deb file and when it is downloaded to the desktop, click it from there. That is the only way I could get it to work. Using mozilla to launch it and every other method I tried failed.

Tred, you're AWESOME!  I was having problems with flash in general and your fix worked.  I tried doing the search for the flashplugin like Riggs and had the same result.  This was my second install in 2 days and I've had problems with 710 and flash too.   Everythings good now thanks again.  Much thanks to those who put their heart into the development, its getting better and better, Thanks!

upon a reinstall of LinuxMCE i install Hulu, after a restart and a complete regen Hulu reports there is no flash so i follow the wiki http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Installing_Flash there download link did not work only flash 10 is available from adobe, so i tried the wiki with flash 10 but it did not work.

This fixed my flash problem on my Media Director on my amd 64 system, nice! thanks!
