Adobe AIR in 9.04 64bit?

[aaronb]

Is Adobe AIR available in 9.04 64bit in the same way that Adobe Flash is in 9.04?
(Using add/remove programs or Synaptic)

Thanks in advance!

I've managed (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb408084) to install and run apps with it. However, the apps aren't able to connect to the internet. So, at least for me, it's a no go. I'll probably just install the 32 bit Jaunty. I pretty much depend on some Air apps.

Just want to add I'm also looking to add Adobe Air to 64bit on 9.04beta.
Tried the Adobe site method without any joy on 9.04 Alpha. I want to down load BBC iPlayer programs. " get_iplayer " is good but takes ages using only a command line.


Just installed using instructions on this link ;

Same here, got apps working, but no internet.
Unfortunately no error messages either (other than that the app can't connect).

Same as the rest. Tried both TweetDeck and Seesmic, and neither could get through. Wonder if (like the ctrl+alt+backspace) ubuntu has disabled something important to let adobe air work??

hi

you need the lib32nss-mdns package... just do

sudo apt-get install lib32nss-mdns

and it will fix internet for your ia32-libs apps

Ok, you have officially made my day. Thx for your brilliance.

Thanks to the new found solution, I have decided to make a post of the start to finish steps to install Adobe Air on 9.04 and specifically Tweetdeck.

Please let me know if I have missed anything important.

TweetDeck still doesn't work for me. lol DestroyTwitter is the only Twitter app I found that works.

[TyrosCenva]

Same here. I believe there's a bug registered somewhere about this and I subscribed to that, but no updates yet..

Thanks for posting i will give a try and get back here.

For TweetDeck you'll need the following libs

libgnome-keyring.so
libgnome-keyring.so.0
libgnome-keyring.so.0.1.1

To get those, you'll need the getlibs package located at http://www.boundlesssupremacy.com/Cappy/getlibs/getlibs-all.deb

so install it, then just do:

sudo getlibs -l libgnome-keyring.so
sudo getlibs -l libgnome-keyring.so.0
sudo getlibs -l libgnome-keyring.so.0.1.1

And TweetDeck works for me now :)

If don't work for you, try

/opt/TweetDeck/bin/TweetDeck and maybe it will show some errors or something.
