Yes! I'm using it now, finally I can watch videos on YouTube without audio/video sync issues. I initially installed it with Firefox 1.5, and I was having some stability issues, but on Firefox 2.0 it works great.

Will wonders never cease? Maybe E17 will finally come out of beta, too?

For those few remaining archers, it showed up in the AUR last night, too.

Just upgraded it today on my main workstation. Youtube videos are now in synch. My 3 year old son is happy he can play the wonder pets game on the Nick Jr. website. Life is good.

It was put in unstable before somebody uploaded a PKGBUILD to the AUR. Because of that, the AUR PKGBUILD has been removed. Here a link to the page for flashplugin-beta:

Installed it on my Fedora system this morning (Firefox 1.5.0.7) and I see no change. Flash works OK, but I have no new functionality. I didn't have time to test extensively, though. I hardly ever go to sites that use Flash, but my wife complains about Fox News not working (which I consider a feature, not a bug).

I may have SELinux problems to sort out.
