Installing adobe flashplugin for Firefox in Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 (64 bit)

Posted in

I had some troubles installing the Adobe Flash plugin in Firefox. "The normal way" (working through the Firefox browser) failed in an error: adobe-flashplugin is virtual. The solution is:

  • $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash
    $ sudo aptitude update
    $ sudo aptitude install flashplugin64-installer
  • Restart Firefox and enjoy your new Adobe Flash Player! :-)
