Gnash is not supposed to handle .flv files directly, it is a .swf player

Greetings,

Whatever, it doesn't show up in Iceweasel as a plugin (about:plugins doesn't show it). However, I do have mplayer listed as a plugin for .flv files. Now the Adobe flashplayer handles both types of files, so I don't know what file type Iceweasel is going for when it tells me it's missing a plugin and goes to Adobe's site to get flashplayer.

Now I do have a few .flv files and can play them with mplayer (although kaffeine is the default player for them), and mplayer's plugin does show up in Iceweasel, so I think the evidence is strong that it's the .swf capability that is missing.

Is there an extra step I need to take beyond installing the gnash plugin? I've located several plugin directories that appear to be related to mozilla browsers but I don't see gnash in any of them. What's the exact plugin file name?
