Installing Flash 10 on Intrepid, Ubuntu 8.10 64 Bits

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Adobe has released a NATIVE 64bit Flash Player, Please see this post

Now that Intrepid (Ubuntu 8.10) is out, installing the latest version of flash 10 (ver. 10.0.12.36) is easier than never before, just type the following in your terminal

sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

Done!

Alternatively you can simply select the package flashplugin-nonfree in synaptic.

Hardy users, Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, see this post

    I tried the non-free plugin and it didn’t work right on all things (especially not games) but his 8.04 script worked great on 8.10:

    Tried all methods on my Ubuntu Intrepid x64, the repository method works fine for FF but not for Opera where I get a blank screen, so the best method stil remains your script and nothing else.

    Problem solved, Adobe has released a x64 Flash 10, and guess what, Linux gets it first, download the libflashplayer.so tar from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html, untar and copy the libfkashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins Make sure that previous versions of Flash is uninstalled. Thats all, both FF and Opera picks it up nicely and it works as good as anything in full x64 mode.

    According to the chatter on launchpad, it’s buggy as hell on Ubuntu x64:

    Thank you, thank you for posting this script. Been struggling with flash issues for couple of months but too stubborn to go back to XP so kept searching for solutions, tweaking, reinstalling, etc. This one finally fixed it for me.
