Comment 47 for bug 125986

No, the md5sum error went away after the manual editing of the sources.list file.

The about:plugins returns the following information, which seems to show that a version of the Flash plugin is now installed--but I'm pretty sure this is an old version and that Adobe is currently at 8 or 9? I'm quite hesitant to start mangling my Ubuntu with non-approved software from sources I don't much trust. (Yeah, Adobe, I'm talking about you.)

Shockwave Flash

    File name: libflashplayer.so
    Shockwave Flash 7.0 r68

MIME Type Description Suffixes Enabled
application/x-shockwave-flash Shockwave Flash swf Yes
application/futuresplash FutureSplash Player spl Yes

However, the test website still responds as below. The links in those error messages point at the Adobe website for Windows problems. The test website is not very smart, and basically any and all problems produce this error message, and I can't tell which version of Flash they are insisting upon or if it is some other problem altogether. I don't want to work out these details... I'd prefer it just works. (And I still think there are lots of diners like me out here.)

You need to upgrade your Flash Player by clicking this link.

If you see this and have already upgraded we suggest you follow this link to uninstall Flash and reinstall again.
