just go to ubuntu software center in applications and click get sofware then in the search bar type flash and download the one for mozilla firefox it will automatically work for chromium and there is no crap to deal with trying to use the terminal.

Hey Guys, I get the following error after doing everything correctly, like described above:

chromium-browser --enable-plugins
[6576:6576:5382521023:ERROR:webkit/glue/plugins/webplugin_delegate_impl_gtk.cc(134)] Not implemented reached in bool WebPluginDelegateImpl::WindowedCreatePlugin() windowed plugin but without xembed. See http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=38229

The last sentence means “File or Folder not found”
Hope you can help me.

Thanks for the tip.

In my case on Debian, the plugin was installed in /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree diretory instead of /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer.

It worked. Just the first step of installing flash and voila. No copying required.

@mehdi: with the latest builds, there’s no need to specify the --enable-plugins option anymore.

I installed the latest ubuntu build of chromium-browser and i only copied the flash plugin and it works like charm without --enable-plgins.

I have flash running in Firefox and I recently downloaded Chromium. Followed all the instructions above and…nothing. When I go to Youtube, I still get: Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe’s Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player. If I download the new flash player, I’m told I have the latest one already installed…
