Flash Player does not install as normal user

I have successfully installed Flash Player 10 into root Firefox, but I cant install it as normal user:

bash-3.2# nspluginwrapper -v -a -i
Auto-install plugins from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
Looking for plugins in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
Install plugin /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
  into /root/.mozilla/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
Auto-install plugins from /root/.mozilla/plugins
Looking for plugins in /root/.mozilla/plugins
bash-3.2# exit
exit
bash-3.2$ nspluginwrapper -v -a -i
Auto-install plugins from /home/obsrv/.mozilla/plugins
Looking for plugins in /home/obsrv/.mozilla/plugins
bash-3.2$ mkdir /home/obsrv/.mozilla/plugins
bash-3.2$ nspluginwrapper -v -a -i
Auto-install plugins from /home/obsrv/.mozilla/plugins
Looking for plugins in /home/obsrv/.mozilla/plugins

I have tried to make a symbolic link from /home/obsrv/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so but it seems its not enough to work.
