Last I heard from Adobe (granted it was a blog, but...) the 64-bit
version may be another 2 years to get working.
2 years ?? Maybe macromedia hasn't linux support there and need to
make a outsourcing for the version... Just joking...
It's not so much that as it's the architecture of the existing flash
plugins. It's sort like the problems with IE, too much cruft is causing
the entire system to be re-written from the ground up. This of course
causes things to break and they want backward compatibility as much as
possible. Personally starting over every once in a while is a GOOD thing.
