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!

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

On command prompt, type

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

tar xvfz install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
cd install_flash_player_9_linux/

sudo ./flashplayer-installer
