    Nvidia first of all.

    Go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers and you should see the driver listed there. Enable it and it will be downloaded and installed. You will need your password and to reboot after installation.

    Now Flash.

    Go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager and search for ubuntu-restricted-extras. Install this and you will get Flash, the MS Core Fonts, Java and a few other extra bits and pieces.

    Hope this helps.

    My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.
