Having trawled through the Ubuntu forums I came across this which looked like it would work to install Adobe Flashplayer (on Ubuntu Dapper 6.06LTS.)
<< First remove the old paste this in terminal sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree rm ~/.mozilla/plugins/*flash* then download and save the new to the desktop click the link and get Option 1: .tar.gz http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/downl...ShockwaveFlash now paste these commands in the terminal one line at a time and hit enter cd Desktop tar -xvzf install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz sudo mv install_flash_player_9_linux/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ sudo mv install_flash_player_9_linux/flashplayer.xpt /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ >>
It's unpacked it and put an installation file on the desktop.
However, when I get to the last line it announces that there is no destination file given as follows:
mv: missing destination file operand after `install_flash_player_9_linux/flashplayerxpt/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/'
I cannot find any reference to Firefox plugins within my Firefox browser (version 1.5.0.12) and this is where I imagine they would want to go, so I'm assuming I've missed something. Any help gratefully received.
