    Problem installing flash player 9 on Ubuntu

    I am using Ubuntu on my computer. I visited a site yesterday which asked me to install flash player 9. I downloaded it from www.adobe.com. But when I try to run that file, system says that it can't run that file. I checked the file and it is .tar.gz file. How can I run this file? Any guesses!

    Steps to install Flash Player 9 on Ubuntu

    Here are the steps to install the downloaded .tar.gz file of flash player 9 on Ubuntu.

    On command prompt, type

    Code:
    cd /home/folder_name/
    Note: Here "/home/folder_name/" refers to the exact path of the file where you have saved the Flash Player 9 .tar.gz file.

    Then extract the folder and run the setup file

    Code:

    cd install_flash_player_9_linux/
    
    sudo ./flashplayer-installer
