Flash Problem in Opera 9.25

[Rahim]

I have installed flashplayer-nonfree & Opera 9.25 from Synaptic.
The problem is it wont play any youtube flash movies. The video remains "white".
I have checked the plugin path in Opera Preferences. They are:

[Paths]
/usr/lib/opera/plugins=1
/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree=1
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins=1

The contents of /usr/lib/opera/plugins are

libnpp.so  operaplugincleaner  operapluginwrapper

NOTE: I had downloaded Opera 9.5 earlier and it was working well with Flash but used to crash too often. So i uninstalled it and again installed Opera 9.26 but now Flash doesnt work. So i removed this version too and tried to install from Synaptic(v 9.25) but still no success.

Plz Help Me as I gont like Firefox(dont flame me yaar) and wont shift from Opera.

Have you tried the solution given here:
*help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser

This is not the be-all and end-all of flash problems. If problems persist even when using the most recent version of flash, and the plugin appears to be recognized (it shows up in the opera: plugins "webpage"), editing the opera startup script may help:
gksudo gedit /usr/bin/opera

Find the place where it says
# Workarounds for the "preloaded libXt" problem.

and add the lines:
# Flash workaround.
LD_PRELOAD="libflashplayer.so:${LD_PRELOAD}"
export LD_PRELOAD

just above that line. If you aren't using libflashplayer.so, insert the name of the plugin you are using instead.

Then you can try using the latest beta of opera 9.50 (build 1737).Get it from here:
*snapshot.opera.com/unix/snapshot-1737/intel-linux/

^^that beta version crashes too often for my liking.
"segmentation core dumped error" in version 9.5

Ok, Had this problem some time back,
And here's what I remember.

First disable the other paths in opera prefs.
Then copy the flash files to the opera plugins folder.
That worked for me.Hope it works for you.
