Download tha tarball containing Flash (.tgz)
tar zxf install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz
mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins
cp install_flash_player_10_linux/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins

You could also put it in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

I think nspluginwrapper is useful is you need to get the x86 Flash
plugin working on an amd64 machine. i386 installations should not need
nspluginwrapper.
