Ubuntu equivalent to Windows' Control Panel (where's Flash Player Settings Manager)?

[nrundy]

Just got Flash Player 10.3 installed. In the Windows control panel there is now a Flash Player Settings Manager that lets me configure various settings.

Where do I find this in ubuntu?

I think this is what you want. Click link.

sort of. The new Flash Player released yesterday I think has a new feature where it adds a settings panel into the OS. Linux is listed as an OS that received this feature. I'm wondering where to find it in Ubuntu. It was easy enough to find in Windows.

The settings manager in 10.3 is basically the same as the online one I linked to. There are also supposed to be APIs for browsers themselves to access settings directly. I don't have 10.3 yet, but according to the documentation you will find it either in:

Gnome: System > Preferences > Adobe Flash Player
or in:
KDE: System Settings > Adobe Flash Player

In Gnome you should have a binary:
usr/bin/flash-player-properties

In KDE you get a shared object:
usr/lib/kde4/kcm_adobe_flash_player.so
and a desktop file:
usr/share/kde4/services/kcm_adobe_flash_player.desktop

Hopefully one of those will work for you.

You need to install the package "adobe-flash-properties-kde"

(This seems to be giving me some weird dependency problems but nothing has actually broken)
