The Ubuntu version is 32bit as well. What issues are you having
installing 1.1.11? See:
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey1.1.11/installation
Given that you had the Ubuntu version installed, you would have had the
32bit lib's installed also. However you can install manually:
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs*
sudo apt-get install lib32asound2 lib32ncurses5 lib32stdc++6
If you'd prefer a .deb package you can use Ubuntuzilla:

Note: when you open the SM installer directly, by default it will
attempt to install in /usr/local/seamnkey and to do that you would need
to use:
sudo ./seamonkey-installer
that's not a good thing as it populates the ./mozilla folder with a root
owned mozver.dat file - and it starting with a new .mozilla directory
the installation with create .mozilla owned by root.
So when it asks where SM should be installed, change the location to
/home/<user>/seamonkey. Your user profiles will still use
/home/<user>/.mozilla.
