Worked fine when I replaced the install_flash_player_9 with install_flash_player_10 and set the directory to /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.5.

Thanks a billion!

I used /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.5 and it worked, however, I still can’t play videos with flashplayer 10. Flashplayer 9 works, but it is laggy and wont play smoothly.

okay, ich lese in diesem wie in anderen foren, ich versuche flash player auf meinem ibookg4 und dem betriebssystem ubuntu zu laden. ich schau mir eure idiotischen kommentare an. ich finde keinen einzigen brauchbaren. ich weiss nicht wie man yip/pack/uyop,tar,gmxc, runterlaedt, entpackt, yippt, verschiebt, auf dem terminal, verdichtet, verdampft oder sonstwie behandelt. Ich will nur diesen dreck benutzen nichts mehr, und niemand scheint faehig yu sein, das yu erklaweren> in menschlichen worten/// versteht ihr, nicht in diesem daemlichen technoslang.

Seid ihr wirklich alle so daemlich> mein computer ist viereckig, das ist die grundlage….

but when I tried it says – your architecture x86_64 is not supported.
wow, that means adobe flash can be only on 32bit machines?
