It is fine to have several versions of the plugin. I also have Gnash
(installed system-wide) and Adobe's Flash installed in my mozilla home
folder, this way I can see how both work: Firefox uses Adobe flash while
Epiphany loads Gnash :-)

No, of course, you have to manually copy/paste the above URI into
Iceape's location bar and wait for the results. It's a flash player test
page for your browser.

But that will not solve your Iceape's problem with flash player and video
plugins :-?

Don't worry, I wish all the errors were like that ;-)
