Install flash player in ubuntu

[ShastriJI]

Hello,
I tried in vain to install flash player with synaptic, everything goes well and I am sure it is installed, but the site that requires me wonder again and again to update. In what specific directory and two files libflashplayer.so flashplayer.xpt need to be copied: in the plugins directory. Can you please help me with this? Thank you for your help.

It is in the folder "plugin" / usr / lib / mozilla and / usr / lib / firefox-mizilla, that's how I proceed, I never thought the record. Firefox but a prior should walk. By cons for your problem should be that version 8 is available as FLASH windows. Under Linux, it is (yet?) To version 7. So while sites already using version 8 too bad. Well, not really, you can install internet explorer through wine and more particularly via crossover, the derivative of paying wine specializes in office. Me is what I did and it works spot on! I want to do pubs but it works bug free and can even install Photoshop (not tested). There is a trial version in the xandros distro.

Normal until you access is denied: These directories are not writable users lambda.

To copy the files in question, two possibilities:

Under ubuntu:

sudo cp [after the command ...]

Sudo will ask for your password, and then run your command with administrator rights
In another distro:

su

Su will ask for your password, and you launch a command prompt with administrator rights.

cp [after the command ...]

Copy command will be done with administrator privileges. Then, hit Ctrl + D to close the command prompt and dangerous return to your normal user shell.
