FWIW, I use linux-mozilla-1.7.5 and linux-flashplugin-7.0r25_1 to access
flash based sites with no problem.  The flash6/7 problems seem to be
related to using the pluginwrapper to get it to work with native
browsers.

Most sites that I actually want to see the flash content on I already
know ahead of time so it's not a big deal for me to use a different
browser.  And the rest of the web is nice and flash-free in native
konqueror/firefox :p

The only problem I've noticed is the audio lag on sites like
homestarrunner, but I think the same thing happens on Linux.
