Finally. Flash 10 works perfectly on my 64 bit Ubuntu. This is by far the simplest way to install Flash 10 on 64 bit. Thank you.

Thanks very much, just what I was looking for 🙂

Dude! AWESOME!!! I had so much trouble trying to get this version to work. The prior 10 Beta was relatively easy, but stuff was not working here. Thanks for the “two click” install!
And the performance of this RC is much better! 😀 YAY!

Thanks! This worked perfectly for me.

Very nice job, was having a heck of a time trying to do this manually and was looking everywhere for solutions…. your script just did everything without any fuss. Thanks and I totally appreciate the time you must have put in finding fixes for all the install issues and making this “just work”.

Thank you Alejandro, flash works perfectly now, and it was so easy using this method.
Thank you 100 times 🙂

November 28th, 2008 at 10:38 am

I rarely get excited about installing something, but this was exactly what I needed! This worked on Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit.
May 10th, 2009 at 2:21 pm

You are looking at and old post.

Yup. Firefox was segfaulting after the install script was run. A restart seems to have fixed it. Thanks!

Actually I had the same problem… Its waiting for a response and then its giving the 404 error message.

Please guys help me solve this problem. I am using ubuntu 9.04 (32 bit)
October 29th, 2009 at 3:01 pm
This is an old post. Besides this is only for 64 bit installs.
To install flash on a 32 bit Ubuntu just paste the following in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
November 2nd, 2009 at 7:02 pm
cp: cannot stat `install_flash_player_10_linux/libflashplayer.so': No such file or directory
what went wrong???

Thanks a lot. I lost more than 10 h trying to install it. As it was my first week using Linux I was always giving up.

Works perfectly, Thanks a lot
