Oh, I think you're in trouble here, and on the verge to switch to
Opera. From one of Opera's developers:

"with 9.2x only Flash version 9.0.48.0 will
work, because in the subsequent releases Flash depended on being in a Gtk
browser on linux/unix (this also broke Flash in Konqueror). This Gtk
environment was created in the pluginwrapper in 9.5, but since 9.2x is
stable this was too big a change for it. This has, however, been in 9.5
snapshots for a while now - please check out the Beta2 and see if that
resolves your issues:
