hi there red baron

to install flash, get the .deb package for flash here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/. then install it and you will be able to watch all the videos you want ;)

if you dont know how to install the .deb package, check this link out How to install ANYTHING in Ubuntu! (http://amitech.50webs.com/installing/index.php.html#installing_a_package_manually)

Open Terminal (Applications -> Accessories) and execute:
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

It will ask you for password which is your ubuntu user password.
