I'm sorry I don't have the link to the guide any more, but it made sense @ the time, I didn't know that nokia constrained the flash plugin to its support only!!

Would, uninstalling maemo 5 and reinstalling it again help?

Flashing would sort it out but it's a bit ott.

I'm uploading my libflashplayer.so to a website and I'll give you the link when it's done.
You can then just download it and transfer it to '/usr/lib/browser/plugins/' overwriting your old one and you should be good to go.

There isn't a 10.1 flash player compiled for ARM architecture yet so no alternative libflashplayer.so to use.

The only way around it is to install 'Tweak flash version' which changes the versioning in binary so it tricks the browser into thinking 10.1 is installed. This of course will only play flash 9.4 content in the 10.1 container, it wont be able to play any swf's that really need 10.1.

EDIT:
libflashplayer.so for PR1.2 is here:
