Works for me on Mandriva-2010 64-bit. Although I am using a 32-bit Firefox
on it.

Regarding my earlier comment in this thread about Flashplayer 10.1 beta for
Linux seemingly giving better support for multiple cores and yet not
supporting video acceleration -- this turns out to be correct. Video
acceleration will be supported in the Windows version but *not* the Linux
version.

If anybody is concerned about this, then please get an account on Adobe's
bugzilla and add a vote for each of these two bugs:

http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-1152 (Support the VDPAU API)

and even better, the new platform independent Linux video acceleration API
(which has a backend for nVidia's VDPAU and others):

http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-3146 (Support Acceleration via VA-API)

That's like running before it can walk. If it just supported basic
hardware scaling (Xv?) it would be a start. I think I read that it is
supposed to, but I've never seen it working.
