Is There Any Way To Get A (Deb.) Adobe Flash Player 11.2?

Post by Ziliakquant »

I was trying to play: http://www.theamazingspiderman.com/game/ but I needed the latest version of flash. There has been many games or programs I have tried to use and it needed the same software so I thought a linux forum would be the perfect place to ask. I use debian and don't know how to instal (.tar.gz)s or pretty much any other file format other than Microsoft but that's not really an option Xb. (That's mostly why I posted this in the Newbie Questions category)

Can I have a link for any (.Deb) versions of the Adobe Flash Player 11.2? Maybe a link to a site that might have one?

Thanks :D

I use debian as a software and I need the latest update of flash but I can't find a (.deb) file in the list from this page: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

I was wondering if there was any other place I could find the (.deb) package. I tried googleing it but I couldn't find the right answer there.

I typed this the code you gave me into my terminal and it said this: No LSB modules are available.

Not sure what that means but I bet some of you might XD

(By the way I'm not a huge cody kinda guy. I know some basic stuff and some advanced stuff but I don't really know what some things mean like lmde or debian proper lol)

Thanks for pursuing my question :D

you can find a lot of .deb-files at packages.ubuntu.com
here is what you're trying to find: http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/flas ... -installer
(download links are at the bottom of the page)

Ziliakquant,
and if you do this

Code: Select all

apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
will it solve the question?

Zil,
if you open a new tab in your browser (i assume you are using iceweasel) and type about:plugins press enter and search for Shockwave Flash which version is there listed?

I use aurora :) and it says I have Shockwave Flash but I don't know what version

Thanks
