I’ve read on the Macromedia website that there is an 64 bit version availible for Linux, It said that there is no need for libflashplayer.so anymore and should work with the 64-bits sytem.

Would the author update do some re-search for this and update the post?
Greetings,

install flash player

Method #1 falls down at the first hurdle: you don’t say where to save the grabbed .deb file so that the 2nd step (”sudo dpkg -i sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb”) can access it.

That’s because there’s a copy-paste typo in there. It should just be,

sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb

I’ve probably made the same mistake myself in the past, but I think it’s always good practice to verify any tutorial you post on the interwebs yourself by actually practicing the tutorial from your own instructions, copying and pasting every step of the way.

This worked for me:
1. Go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and download the .tar.gz version.
2. Close all browsers and open a terminal window.
3. cd to the folder where the .tar.gz folder is located and run these commands:
1. gunzip .tar.gz-folder
2. tar -xvf the-.tar-folder-that-you-just-created
4. cd into the folder that you just craeted (for me it was “install_flash_player_10_linux”).
5. Now run these commands:
1. ./the-installationfile (for me “./flashplayer-installer”)
2. Press Enter.
3. Press Enter again.
4. Enter the location of where your browser is installed (for me “/usr/lib/firefox”) and press enter.
5. Press the y-key.
6. Press the n-key.
Done.

I’ve put /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.10/ when asked about the firefox installation dir.

I guess you should change the -3.0.10 according to your own installation.
