This tutorial will explain How To: Enable flash support for Chromium web-browser.

After having installed the Chromium web-browser,

installing the adobe flash player plugin is as simple as firstly; Searching for it:

@her###:~$ sudo aptitude search flash

Finding it:

v   abrowser-flashblock             -                                        
v   abrowser-flashgot               -                                           
v   adobe-flash-properties          -

NOTE: Each search result is listed on a separate line. The first character of each line indicates the current state of the package: the most common states are p, meaning that no trace of the package exists on the system, c, meaning that the package was deleted but its configuration files remain on the system, i, meaning that the package is installed, and v, meaning that the package is virtual (see man aptitude for more details on using aptitude …).
