I just did a new installation of Wheezy, installed just HAL, and installed 
flashplugin-nonfree.  4oD is working.  Whether usably remains to be seen, 
because it is running on a rather old and slow machine.

This week I am going to try this (install Wheezy, install HAL, install 
flashplugin-nonfree) on my TV machine, and will again report back.  Provided 
that I can find a no-rugby day.  I can't put the machine out of action on a 
rugby day.
