    installing flash on Chromium in Lubuntu

    Hi,

    How do you install flash for Chromium in Lubuntu?

    I tried the command: 'sudo apt-get install flashplug-nonfree'

    and received the results: 'Unable to locate package flashplugin-nonfree

    Flash Plugin should be in the software centre--search Adobe Flash player use that rather to install; it should work.

    Edit: enable all repo's in under sources (canonical partners)

    Did you try to go to Adobe's Flash Player website? Maybe they will let you download flash on every browsers.
    By the way, this isn't a Lubuntu forum, it's a Ubuntu forum.
    Have luck!

    There's no software center on Lubuntu. Only Ubuntu.

    Holy...I was not aware of that. I last used Lubuntu 2 seasons ago. I usually install Ubuntu Tweak and get all my extras there, even in Lubuntu.

    You got a typo there, should be 'flashplugin-nonfree' also you need to enable the repos in synaptic, think multiverse or partner are needed.

    You shouldn't need it because it's already installed with Chromium. However, you can install it from Synaptic.

    it isn't already installed in chromium. chromium uses the same location as firefox, so if you have it installed there, it will also be installed for chromium. in addition, i think chrome installs flash.

    Chrome doesn't install Flash by default, use Synaptic.
