I had major problems with both flash and java in Ubuntu 64bit. I'm now using the Ubuntu 32 bit version, as recommended by some Ubuntu experts. More support for applications. I expect things to be different within a years or two. ......

hooo boy, look like i might as well just switch then, that mean fresh install and goodbye customization. oh well, gotta do wat you gotta do.

why dont u back up the config files so you dont have to re-customise. I think if you use the same home folder, i.e. jus copy and paste it shud keep all your user configs

really, that simple? is there some way to save a list of all the packages i hav installed?

For flash in Firefox with 64bit (tested with 10.10 beta also) simply download the libflashplayer.so from adobe (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html) file and place it in "/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins" then restart Firefox.

To get access and paste simply press ALT+F2 and then type in "sudo nautilus" without the quotes and navigate to the location or copy/paste it after pressing CTRL+L in the nautilus window.

Works for me - let me know if it works for anyone else.

Switched to 10.10 to resolve issue with my Encore wireless N USB.

Why don't you guys just download the latest 64 bit Flash that Adobe release over a week ago. They've resumed 64 bit flash for Linux, Windows, and Mac. There is also A PPA available as well.

I've been using it since the PPA came out and so far no issues whatsoever.

Flash Player 10.2.161.22 Beta (64 bit)

http://www.webupd8.org/2010/09/adobe...102-64bit.html

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install flashplugin64-installer

Excellent. Thanks for the info.

Excellent. Thanks for the info.

Oh, before you download, I forgot to mention that it is still a Beta version. It's working ok for me, but as you know the case with Linux, not everyone will have the same experience.

I think I'll stick to 32 bit for the time being...
