I know there are a few Linux users here and I need some help. I installed Debian and I cant figure out out to install flash. I tried looking in synaptic but its not there. I don't know which one to download from there web site.
 
You must download the flash player from Adobe. It should have an installer for FireFox and Mozilla. For Opera, you can compress the downloaded file and copy "libflashplayer.so" to /home/yourname/.opera/plugins.

I hope this helps.
 
The Tar.gz file. You should be able to decompress this into a subdirectory in your home directory. The installer is in the new directory. If you are using Gnomou or KDE, double clicking the .Tar file should allow you to unpack it.

Then:

1. open a shell/terminal.
2. cd to the flash directory
3. use the 'su' command and enter your password.
4. type ./name of installer.

You should be able to install it.
