Works for me.  :(  I did the update to 2.0.0.3 yesterday, and I'm running 
flash 9.0 r31 on edgy.

On the other hand, I long ago gave up using the default ubuntu package of 
Firefox, it's been horribly buggy for me.  I just grabbed the tarball from 
mozilla.com and run that from my home dir.  Works great.
