How to install Adobe flash 10.2 (Preview) in Ubuntu 10.10 (maverick) Using PPA
Finally adobe released adobe flash preview version for 64-bit systems you can install this in ubuntu 10.10 using PPA
Install Adobe flash 10.2 (Preview) in Ubuntu 10.10
Open the terminal and run the following commands
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install flashplugin64-nonfree
If you use this PPA to install in ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) you will get 10.0.45
I installed the flash64 package in Lucid from Maverik repository and it’s fine
I’d tried to download Adobe flash, here and via Adobe Labs. Nothing works in 10.04 :-/
But if you install Flash-Aid in Firefox, you’re flash will work.
Lucid flash64 plugin was updated in ppa repository
Thanks for this info. However the package was renamed “flashplugin64-installer” (I couldn’t find “flashplugin64-nonfree” in the depot, but it was maybe only for me).
I had the same as Francois
E: couldnt find package flashplugin64-nonfree
Now it work’s but it’s auto-updates
So, should we uninstall the default flash plugin that comes with ubuntu first? flash player plugin 10.1.85.2ubuntu1? Or can they coexist?
hi,
i install kubuntu 10.10 64bit. i install flashplayer 64bit using ppa, after installing, the webssite still lookong for missing plug in. pls help.
Hi jojo 🙂
I have Kubuntu 10.10 and I think you missed the right one, there is two but first you must conform that you want the third-part’s program, if you don’t the right one don’t show. You should have the nonfree version, it works.
@Francois: Yup, same problem here dude. Works with the change of name to installer though 🙂
I am novice in using ubuntu. I run the command sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash

plz help in installing adobe flash
Your install command doesn’t work because there’s no package called flashplugin64-nonfree, the command should be:
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
Thank you, virtualxtc. Now it works.
sudo apt-get install flashplugin64-installer
Dude, in the final step, I got this error ..
“E: Unable to locate package flashplugin64-nonfree”
However, after changing to
“sudo apt-get install flashplugin64-installer”
it worked like a charm …
