Thanks for trying but this doesn’t work on gutsy 7.10 x86 64-bit.

This is likely due to the fact that it was a script made for older versions of Ubuntu.

Only one problem though, you can’t watch the video from a Ubuntu x64 because you don’t have flash installet…yet :)

Ben: Yeah, this is a VERY dated now obsolete article. I run x64 on both an AMD system and an Intel dual core system. To get Flash working, I go to a page requiring flash such as Youtube, ensure that my multiverse repository is enabled and follow the immediate prompts - that’s it.
