    There is no Flash plugin for PPC from Adobe. Use the free alternatives gnash or swfdec instead.

    it's the 3rd day that i'm trying to get this working but nothing so far
    i tried gnash (which is absolutely crap) , totem search ect. but nothing seems to work...anyway, i'm getting FLV url from youtube and than play it in totem...thet's the best hack i could think of although it's a bit mind killing ...

    going to try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1360148 now..

    uh huh. gnash and the other are the crap. don't bother.

    set up that greesemonkey thing. It's not ideal, but gets the job done.
