Why when I attempt to update Adobe Flash, it ask me to remove Firefox.
Using Aurora 13.0a2, on Ubuntu 11.10, cannot play flash with the current Gnash plugin; when I attempt to update Adobe Flash, it ask me to remove Firefox.

Not sure if there are any set default restrictions which you may have to override. Also, I think Synaptic should be offering at least Flash 11, unless perhaps the default Firefox that came with Ubuntu is 64-bit. If you downloaded the Aurora zip package from Mozilla, you can try to create a plugins folder inside the extracted firefox folder as outlined in the Adobe Readme. This way you would have the regular Firefox from Ubuntu with Gnash as well as the future Firefox with Flash and possibly Gnash. Please note that it would be a good idea to create another profile (for eg. aurora) and switch between the two profiles for Firefox and Aurora to prevent possible corruption of personal data. The Ubuntu forums would also be very helpful.

Hi,
You can try to install the flash-plugin via the Package Manager/Update Manager/PackageKit in addition to the Gnash player. For manual installation, please see this. Posting in the Ubuntu forums would also be helpful.
Thanks, I've tried to install using Synaptic and Ubuntu Package Manager; the twp pf them allow me to install Adobe flash, but as soon as it downloads and start the installation, it tells me that needs to remove Firefox and Gnome support. Everything started because Adobe Flash 10 was disabled and Gnash was downloaded instead.
If you click "Install anyway" it is accepted ?
thank you
Yes, it is accepted, but then Mozilla Firefox is removed and when attempt to install Firefox, Flash player is removed. At the end, only combination is Firefox - Gnash, but not all swf files are played....

Ok. Thanks for the response. I still wonder why I cannot have a standard Firefox running along with Flash..... Oh, never mind. Thanks again.
