Chrome should have flash player built in - try making sure you have the
latest version installed.

Also, I'm pretty sure there is an installer for the Adobe Flash plugin
(in the Natty repositories at least), try installing the "flashplugin-
installer" package.

Title:
  Fail when installing afobe flash on amd64

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I try to install adobe flash from Adobe's website. The APT install is
  intercepted by Ubuntu software centre, but that then tells me that
  'there isn't a current software package called "Adobe flashplugin" in
  your current software sources.'

  Clearly, I should be trying to install the correct 64 bit beta version
  instead, but USC isn't helping to make this any more obvious. The
  reason I am installing it is that Chrome doesn't seem to have flash
  working any more after my recent upgrade.
