I can't tell why it works for you in fedora but when the flashplayer
plugin is properly detected by the browser and it can't load a file it
usually means the problems is "elsewhere". Anyway, Lenny was using
Iceweasel 3.0.x (not 3.5.x) unless you got the updated version from the
backports version and 3.0.x it can be very old.

I've never had problems with that. In fact, I'm using right now adobe
flashplayer in Firefox (the plugin is located in my user's home) and
gnash in Epiphany (plugin is installed system wide), they do not collide.
