I find that strange.  I'm currently using 0.8.1+cvs20080212.1133-1 on amd64
and works fine for my use case.  It doesn't support all the sites, but it
supports the big ones (e.g. youtube) and is much better than not supporting any
at all.

Please can you be more specific?

  - versions you have tried
  - unsupported websites you are missing
  - possible drawbacks that would make "flash-less" setup preferrable
