Hi there!

New to Trisquel (just installed 3.0 10 minutes ago, downloaded the iso ~2hrs ago, and have auto-updated once). Looks great so far, but ...

Under Add-ons -> Plugins in my browser, there are some suspiciously non-free looking items: "Shockwave Flash 9.0 r999" (I'm hoping against hope that this is just a functioning version of Gnash!) and "DivX Web Player".

Does anyone know what's going on?

It is swfdec, similar to gnash.

That's the totem plugin.

This was already reported. It is misleading, but it is the way mozilla
refers to its plugins, no matter if they are free or not.

Wow! swfdec in particular works really well. So sorry about double-reporting.
