Please solve this for me.

Well you could try going to Package Manager and making sure that libcairo2 is installed. It should be by default.

But I didn't think there was a .deb version of Flash 10 for Mint 4 (which is based on Ubuntu 7.10 aka: Gutsy). I've always had to download the .tar.gz from here:

It is a bit difficult to install but this is a good step by step tutorial:
