Can you post your sources.list? It almost seems that the multimedia

Thanks for replying Sjoerd.  Here is my /etc/apt/sources.list on Etch:
-----
deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian etch main
#deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian experimental main contrib
#deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian sid main contrib
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ experimental main

This gives the apt-get error that I posted in my earlier message to
debian-user.  The fourth and fifth lines were added when I tried to
install the 32-bit Flash plugin with ndiswrapper directly with
apt-get.  That hadn't worked too and I had to comment out those lines
when apt-get said it would upgrade my whole system to sid.
I do think that the experimental repository of debian-multimedia is not compiled with the libraries of etch. That explains the problems. You can use the stable repository, but that of course is the 32-bits version and nspluginwrapper. So I think you either have to update your system to testing/unstable, or use a 32 bit version of flash.
