    Where do I find the Macromedia flash package?

    I have both Konqueror and Firefox. I'm looking for the "flashplugin-nonfree" package but can't find it anywhere. I have checked all the default repositories and even added some suggested ones.

    I prefer not to install it manually. Besides, I'm not sure what directories Firefox and Konqueror reside in so, I can't complete a manual installation.

    Did you click on "Fetch Updates" (or ran "sudo apt-get update" if you're using the command line) when you changed/added to your repositories?

    Could you post the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list so that we could verify if you have the correct repositories?

    Thanks

      I found it in a repository, downloaded it and tried it out. The flash player worked in Firefox but there was no audio. Then, I searched the forums and found a supposed fix that involved downloading some sort of OSS wrapper. The fix worked for flash sound but It completely screwed up the ALSA settings for KDE. I couldn't figure out how to fix it so I did a complete reinstall of Kubuntu. For now, I'm going to avoid installing Flash...I heard Flash v9.0 will use Alsa, whenever that comes out.
