Today I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. After upgrading I was unable to get flash working. I had successfully installed the 32bit version working with flash at work. After doing some searches on Google for my problem, I found the cause. The problem is that the version in the repository is for the 32 bit version. This was not going to work. After doing some more research, I found a shell script that could get flash working
Steps to get flash working under Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
- Open up a terminal Applications->Accessories->Terminal
- wget http://www.tullyrankin.com/code/ubuntu-64-10-04-flash.sh
- chmod +x ubuntu-64-10-04-flash.sh
- ./ubuntu-64-10-04-flash.sh
