So, just for fun, I pulled down the 64-bit version from adobe.com, and
it doesn't work at all.

I like what I have - it works.

I've been using Adobe Flash 64 Beta and "Square" for a long time now
with no issues (10,3,162,29)

Just remove any trace of a previous Flash install, download "Square" from

Extract libflashplayer.so to home/$/.mozilla/plugins/

Restart Firefox and it's done.

Sounds like you are using Firefox directly from Mozilla and installing it in your home directory - which is what I used to do until 12 months ago. The installation of firefox which comes with Ubuntu, and 'maintained' by Canonical, does not use the /home/.mozilla/plugins/ - the symlink there is "dead"; the plugin for FF is in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins.
