Can you watch this video with gnash?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwZLFTW4OGYfeature=related

I wanted to show somebody this video about dyslexia and needed to
install flashplugin-nonfree, because gnash from testing wasn't able to
play it.

Ralf

That wasn't a put down. Please don't take it as such. At the moment 
I am an Ubuntu user, struggling to make Squeeze my primary distro.

 I don't run Gnome, never done a default install either.

I believe I said that in another post.

flashplugin-installer is *the* way to go if you tolerate non-free.

 sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

currently not working for Squeeze

 icedtea6-plugin
 
snipped
 The icedtea6-plugin is the browser plugin of OpenJDK
 


After you've installed what you need except for Flash...

Add debian-multimedia to /etc/apt/sources.list:-
eg:-
#Multimedia repository - only use if the package cannot be found in
standard repositories
#deb http://mirror.optus.net/debian-multimedia/ stable main non-free
#deb-src http://mirror.optus.net/debian-multimedia/ stable main

See this page to find your local mirror:-
http://debian-multimedia.org/

Guessing that you're new - you'll probably go for a default install
which will give you sudo and a Gnome desktop. That also means you'll
have gnash installed which will handle flash well in many cases.

To modify /etc/apt/sources.list open a terminal run:-
1. sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
copy and paste the appropriate lines from the web page into the file
make sure you uncomment the first deb line (remove the # from the
start of the line)
save it (F2), yes, Enter
install the signing key for the repository:-
2. sudo apt-get install debian-multimedia-keyring
Update the apt database:-
3. sudo apt-get update
install flash:-
4. sudo flashplayer-mozilla
install dvd decrypt while you're there:-
5. sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2

When you're done comment out the first deb line again:-
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
then update the apt database again:-
sudo apt-get update
Some of the packages in Multimedia have the same names as ones on in the
main repositories - and mixing them can break things. It's best to only
enable Multimedia for specific packages.

Gnash never worked well for me. Very choppy and memory intensive.
As for icedtea6-plugin, that is the OpenJDK Java plugin for browsers.
You could also install sun-java6-plugin instead (which is Sun/Oracle's  
version)

At least older versions of gnash didn't work perfectly, there was the
need to use the proprietary flash, I dunno what gnash is able to do now.

If gnash works for the sites you visit IMO it's the better choice ;).
