Installing Flash on Ubuntu
Note: This tutorial no longer works in Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal). If you click the Click here to download plugin link, Ubuntu will search for a suitable plugin and then say No suitable plugins were found.. If you want to install Flash, Java, MP3 playback, and a lot of other popular proprietary codecs all at once, install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package instead. The procedure for installing Flash is pretty similar from version to version of Ubuntu. This page uses screenshots from Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat). You can also see specific instructions for Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) and Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala). If you use 64-bit Ubuntu, apparently, it's quite a more complicated procedure to get Flash installed. When you visit a page that requires a Flash plugin, you will get the message that the plugin is missing.
Before you can use the plugin, you may have to quit Firefox and then start it again.
