flash player install

[Rachel]

hey,

I work as S/w developer. I'm newbie to Ubuntu, but I really like to work with it. So decided to install Linux in virtual BOx and off course I was able to do.


Now I want to use Linux as a complete one. I decided to install flash player, but once i downloaded the flash player install_flash_player_10_linux.deb on my desktop and try to install it through terminal using the below command:

sudo dpkg -i sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb,

I'm attaching the screenshot of the error I get.
what am I missing?


Thanks!
Rachel

If the file is on your Ubuntu desktop, try just double-clicking it! Mine unpacks and installs just that easily.

By far the best way to install packages in Ubuntu, however, is to use the Synaptic package manager. It should be listed there for you, just Mark for Installation, click Apply and watch the magic!

hey Teeny,


I tried Systems->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager and entered flash in search box I couldn't find any, it was just blank.

Also when I went for double click, it shows the following error message:

Error: dependency not satisfiable: libnspr4-dev

thanks

Just curious. Have you opened termianl and done a

sudo apt-get update

yet before installing?

[Rachel]

Tried that too.

Take a look at screenshot.

I need the install to be working, coz I gotta install PBX in FLASH for my current project with ASTERISK.

Help!

sudo dpkg -i sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb

this is wrong, it should be

sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb

Make sure you use cd command to switch to Desktop directory before executing.

I just looked at your screenshot, feisty fawn was released a long time ago and isn't supported, so you can't get updates for it. You should install latest version of ubuntu, or install the LTS release (8.04).

[Rachel]

Oh okay so to install latest version, I got to download and burn to the empty CD and then go for install on my desktop.

I have a question ,

Can I use PBX in flash, X-Lite with my Linux OS in virtual machine. Coz I came to know that system requirement for PBX in flash is centOS 5?

So what's centOS 5?

sorry for my ignorance.
