    Ubuntu 11.04 Flash Player installation issues.

    Hi, I've just installed Ubuntu 11.04, and now I'm trying to install Adobe Flash Player.
    Buuuuuuuut, I seem to be having problems, when I go in and try to install it through Ubuntu Software Center, as soon as I hit install, I get this..

    Package dependencies cannot be resolved
    This error could be caused by required additional software packages which are missing or not installable. Furthermore there could be a conflict between software packages which are not allowed to be installed at the same time.

    Details;
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:

    flashplugin-installer: Depends: ia32-libs (>= 2.2ubuntu18 but it is not going to be installed


    So, what exactly do I have to do to get this working?

    or just install flash from software center, works well
    When close to achieving you quit! If you don't try you failed. Real Winners are not afraid of losing.

    Only 32-bit flash is available in the repositories.

    There's also FlashAid, which installs the proper flash version for your architecture. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...don/flash-aid/

    TOP TIP....

    install ubuntu restricted extras from the software centre, it has all these thing that you will need like flash palyer, MP3 support etc....
