It isn't needed with the latest OS release and was only an unofficial patch for the prior OS release so that flash correctly reported it's version. The problem was fixed in the latest release. You have the most recent version of flash available for the N8x0.

- Wait for Adobe to compile a newer version of the Flash plugin for ARMEL Linux and for Nokia to include it in an update.
- Convince Veoh to check if they actually rely upon something in the very latest version of the Flash plugin, and if not, recode their version checks to allow older, but still compatible, versions.
- Figure out how to patch the Flash plugin binary on your tablet so it reports a newer version than what it is, and hope Veoh doesn't rely upon changes made in newer versions of the plugin.

It's unfortunate that some web sites don't understand their customers. My site is very technical so most of my viewers are well versed in Internet use and more likely to seek out the latest releases. Only 65% have the latest version of flash. Perhaps as many as 15% have versions of flash veoh.com is guaranteed not work with. As a web developer I go to great lengths to see that my sites are compatible with the widest variety of users, OS and browsers. That is what my clients expect. An example of the right way is Google. They design for an older version of flash and use have developed a javascript wrapper for flash that works on everything. If you download a non-flash video it will be in Apple Quicktime format with a .mov file extension. All decisions made to support the most viewers.

I had the same issue with the SSU failing to install, and went into applications manager and uninstalled the flash-player-r53 or whatever number it was, and then the SSU installed fine.
