If it were me, I would try making a nest that is not password protected
to see if that is the issue or whether it is a problem with the nesting
system itself - that may isolate the problem at least. I must admit I
haven't encrypted my nest. My life is far too boring .....

Flash will not be in there as it is not 'free' software, in the sense
that it does not offer the freedoms guaranteed by the GPL (if you are
perplexed check out the free software foundation's site
http://www.fsf.org/). Different distros have different opinions about
including 'non-free' software. However, if you get software packages
for anything you want, you can install them to a running dyne:bolic
sytem - there is a link off the wiki's FAQ page explaining how. You
will have to reinstall them after booting again (docking doesn't change
this) - this can be seen as a bonus because you can install anything &
100% lose it if you don't want it again. The only way to make them
permanent is to remaster d:b or make a module.
