flashplayer is kinda goofy cos it's a binary linked against an odd
libstdc++ library. if you start mozilla up from a terminal you'll see an
error message which libstdc++ lib it is missing. If you create a symlink
to the libstc++ you get with lunar it is happy enough:

ln -s libstdc++.so /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3

this is what I had to do to get flash working!
