Adobe has release a developer preview of 64 bit Flash Player for Linux, here’s how I installed it on my 64 bit Ubuntu 11.04 Beta 2 (yeah am trying the bleeding edge Ubuntu darlin’)

1. Download Adobe Flash Player 10

2. Untar it : tar zxvf flashplayer10_2_p3_64bit_linux_111710.tar.gz

3. Copy libflashplugin.so ke firefox plugins directory and make a symlink for addons directory

    sudo su

    cp libflashplugin.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins

    (note if you use firefox4: cp libflashplugin.so /usr/lib/firefox-4.0/plugins)

    cd /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins

    ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so libflashplayer.so

   (note if you use firefox4:  ln -s /usr/lib/firefox-4.0/plugins/libflashplayer.so libflashplayer.so)
