[Bug 933509] Re: Incorrect Flash Player version
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 830173 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/830173 I had the same problem on an Ubuntu 11.10 installation occurring some days ago. In Ubuntu software center the flash plugin was titled Adobe Flash Plugin 10 and subtitled Adobe Flash Player plugin version 11. My workaround was to use synaptic to install adobe-flashplugin which replaced the formerly installed adobe-flashplugin:i386. I don't know why and how this 32bit software was installed on my 64bit system... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/933509 Title: Incorrect Flash Player version To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/933509/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 933509] Re: Incorrect Flash Player version
I have the same problem. The Shockwave flash 10.1 plugin is actually gnash. The Adobe flash plugin doesn't show up in Firefox at all. I found that running update-alternatives --config mozilla-flashplugin can fix the problem by switching the flashplugin alternative from gnash back to the Adobe flash plugin. Something must have gone wrong with the automatic setting of the alternative on the last update. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/933509 Title: Incorrect Flash Player version To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/933509/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 830173 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/830173 I don't think this is the same as bug#830173. The complaint with 830173 is about the naming of the Gnash flash plugin and/or confusing update messages. My complaint is that my flash plugin alternative changed automatically after a flashplugin-installer update. I didn't even know I had an alternative flash plugin unstalled without some serious digging. The end user impact for me is an unexplained and severe loss in functionality. I believe the solution for this bug would involve a change to how the mozilla-flashplugin alternative is handled. Obviously such a change would do nothing for bug#830173. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/933509 Title: Incorrect Flash Player version To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/933509/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 933509] Re: Incorrect Flash Player version
Thank you for looking at this for me!! I do have automatic updates enabled, and it appears to be working because I get updates a couple of times a week. I always accept them. If I run update manager, this update does not show as a pending update. It's only when I check on the status of the addons within Firefox that I get this message.
