they are supported now... but in any case open up software sources(admin menu) and check
all the boxes in the ubuntu software tab.
then open synaptic(should me next to sources in the menu) and seach for restricted and install ubuntu restricted extras
this installs proprietary software like java and flash and other stuff... then seach for gstreamer and install the "good" "bad" and "ugly" and other gstreamer stuff it suggests. also install "libflashsupport"

I also recommend songbird www.getsongbird.com
thats what gstreamer is for...
although right now there are a few bugs with sound sources but its still awesome.
you might have some problems with sound

one more thing i like to install is "gnome-compiz-manager"
it shows up in the preferences menu as Advanced Desktop Effect Settings
do this if you have nvidia i wouldnt bother if you have ATI

this is my desktop atm
