How to: Install 64bit Flash Player on Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex, Finally :)

Adobe Flash Player

Finally, Adobe has released native 64 bit Flash Player for Linux, this means you could install 64 bit flash player plugin to Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex 64 bit without complicated tricks and 32 bit emulation!

Here is how:

Download 64 bit Flash Player from this link or use this one:

http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.d20.7.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz

Then open a terminal and remove the existing plugin (be aware of double dash):

sudo apt-get remove -y –purge flashplugin-nonfree

Remove the leftovers from the previous plugin installation (–purge option may do the same thing…):

sudo find /usr/lib -name npwrapper.libflashplayer.so -delete

Now copy the files from folder where you’ve extracted to the Firefox plugins folder (or you may just place the file under ~/.mozilla/plugins folder):

cp FOLDER_FOR_EXTRACTED_FILES.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins

That’s all, holy cow! Native 64 bit Flash Player works!
