Flash only working in root

i've installed flash via pacman, and it only works in root within firefox, not in my actual user account, suggestions?

Were there any warnings / errors when you installed? If so, can you please post them?

A-ha. So now what?
Let's check the wiki, shall we?

I have the same situation in chromium. I've followed Wiki instructions but the problen persists. Chromium does show the plugin location under about:plugins

You have an other problem, benoror (I guess). Downgrade flash and your problem should be gone.
