Let's start with the minor fact, that '9.0' is significantly
smaller than even '10.0'. Next, I think that the latest firefox
may need latest flash (10.1), due to recent changes.

If about:plugins shows the flash plugin, then it is installed correctly.
For amd64 users, Adobe did not publish a 64-bit 10.1 plugin so you have to use nspluginwrapper or firefox-bin.

Resolving as INVALID, please reopen if none of the above applies to you.
