I'm not sure if this bug is still affecting Hardy Heron 8.04 with Firefox 3.0. I just wanted to mention that Steve Langasek's post led me to a solution to my problem. My symptoms were similar, but I didn't think creating a link was a good idea. I had a conflict with Gnash, which was the preferred SFW player. The Adobe player was correctly installed. $ update-alternatives --display xulrunner-addons-flashplugin xulrunner-addons-flashplugin - status is auto. link currently points to /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so - priority 50 /var/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so - priority 50 Current `best' version is /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so.

This is actually a problem with nspluginwrapper as far as I can tell (at least for those of us on 64bit). The flash plugin postinstall script correctly installs to the xulrunner-plugins directory, unless it detects you are using nspluginwrapper. Unfortunatly, nspluginwrapper only seems to install to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ and not /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/ which is where plugins need to be for firefox 3. I'm trying to wrap my head around how to get it to do the right thing, but I'm not a developer, so its a little over my head. ** Also affects: nspluginwrapper (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- hardy heron 8.04 alpha 5 - flash not installed correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195422 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I fixed this problem with Firefox 3 Beta 4 by running this command with flashplugin-nonfree installed: sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/firefox-flashplugin /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b4/plugins/flashplugin.so Restarted firefox and works great! -- hardy heron 8.04 alpha 5 - flash not installed correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195422 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Found another person with the same problem, 64-bit architecture but he upgraded instead of clean install, the fix was this: sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/firefox-flashplugin /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b4/plugins/flashplugin.so mind you, this bug existed since firefox 3 beta 3 -- hardy heron 8.04 alpha 5 - flash not installed correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195422 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It seems I've hit the same bug, though I've hit it on a freshly installed machine (total reformat).

OK, I found the problem, there were some leftovers in my /home/ directory from the old gutsy install.
