64-bit flash plugin for 'nix

[Tyler Aviss]

Just a note for those that might be using different ubuntu/firefox versions


On my newer machine with Intrepid, plugins installed to:

/usr/lib/firefox/plugins

On my machine at work with an older firefox on Hardy it's:

/usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins


After removing conflicting plugins (nsspluginwrapper/gnash/etc) the
beta plugin works on both machines.
Now I can see flash in all it's ad-laden glory (and as an added note,
the "flashblock" plugin also works with this beta of flash10)
