I am new to Ubuntu/Kubuntu after finally getting fed up with Gentoo after more than five years, so don't flame me too badly for my first post, but I must ask: What's wrong with just downloading the entire 65 MB file with all the Flash versions and taking the last version that worked? Sure, the one-time download would take a little while for the ever-shrinking number of people still on dial-up, but I've seen bigger problems, and that would fix this bug for everyone right now. One of the reasons I'm trying Ubuntu/Kubuntu is because of how everything allegedly "just works," but the long existence of this easily-fixed issue is discouraging.
