I have another question: why exactly is flashplugin-nonfree using ndiswrapper on 64bit? I use the 64-bit release of Flash directly from Adobe, installed manually, and it work perfectly with Pulseaudio without ndiswrapper.

I have had zero crashes or sound problems with it ever since I removed the current version from the repositories. I can move its audio stream between sound devices, etc. (Also, the 64bit version from Ubuntu worked very well before adding ndiswrapper.) I just don't get why we wouldn't use a "clean" version for 64bit. (Actually, I'm not sure why ndiswrapper is used on 32 bits, either, but I don't have any 32-bit Jaunty machine to try it.)
