I am using ubuntu 12.04 and now my flashplayer no longer works in either firefox or chromium. i have updated to the latest flashplayer but still browsers say i need a plugin update. but when i click on get plugin it just sits in searching for plugin and does nothing else. i can play downloaded flash .flv movies but nothing on youtube or similar.
