I've only just started using this dreaded Command Terminal thingy on Linux as it is! LOL! I have to say its been mostly trouble-free computing since i installed it 2 years ago, and i've not been put off by this minor glitch. I recall making an attempting to install it manually, but gave up as i couldn't maneuver around this successfully. Although i reckon 'libflashplayer.so' is part of the Adobe Flash Player package i had previously downloaded from their site.

I still don't know what 'libflashplayer.so' is, but it's what i get when u run 'dpkg-query -list *flash*'. I've just tried again and the result is the same as before. , E:Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.įirstly, (even though English isn't my first language), I can assure you that i actually copy-pasted the command: dpkg-query -list *flash* as you gave. W:Failed to fetch Unable to find expected entry multiverse/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?) Attempting to update my machine now brings up: I don't know if this is related, but a simultaneous problem has also since arisen with my Automatic Update Manager. The Firefox plugin checker above says my Flash is up to date.Ħ.

Bearing in mind i've run Flash-Aid numerous times, and it finishes up by saying Flash has been successfully installed. Running that command you gave in the Terminal brings up: 'No packages found matching libflashplayer.so.' which really puzzles me. moshimonsters, nor any other online video will work.ģ. Hi again, and thanks for your patience, and questions.Ģ.
