I opened the Adobe site as suggested by Firefox and chose to install
via the Flash installer.  It opened in the Ubuntu Software Center.
Installation went well and now youtube vids play once more for me
(10.10 Ubuntu) except for some speed issues I'm taking up with my ISP.
I must say it was nice to see the Adobe Flash installer open right in
the Ubu software. We've come a long way.
