I decided to go ahead and upgrade to 9.10. When I did, everything seemed to work fine. Except I couldn't install the flash player. I thought it was just a Flash player related issue until I tried to fix it.
Attempt upon attempt lead me to discover I couldn't install anything at all. I get the error that the file is corrupt or I don't have permissions. When I check permissions, everything is fine.
Other errors when attempting to install flash were:
E:The Package needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
I searched through the 4 or 5 posts I could find on the issue of getting Flash to install and tried every bit of code, every technique and I get the same errors when attempting to install. I've attempted the deb installer file, installing from terminal, installing from Add/remove. None of it works. I've attempted script after script. Still will not install, or remove flash.
I love Ubuntu but this, and some of my inability to find supporting software for my peripherals makes me want to go back to *cringe* Win XP. I really don't want to do that, is there anything that can be done?
