Gnome Tips – ArchWiki

1. Remove currently installed versions of Flash.

sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-nonfree gnash gnash-common mozilla-plugin-gnash nspluginwrapper swfdec-mozilla

Visit http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_64bit.html to update the filename given under if necessary.

2. Download the 64-bit Flash plugin and extract it:

wget http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz && tar xvfz libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz

3. Move the file in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins for a site-wide install (or in ~/.mozilla/plugins for a single-user install):

sudo mv libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

At this stage, you should restart Firefox and verify that the plugin is installed properly by typing about:plugins in the URL bar.
