Flash not working in Chrome after 14.04 upgrade

[footer]

Greetings,

I just upgraded to 14.04 and discovered that Flash is not working in Chrome (it was working flawlessly in 13.10). Chrome says it's not installed (http://chrome://flash/):

About Flash

Chromium 34.0.1847.116 (Ubuntu 14.04 aura)
OS Linux
Flash plugin Not installed

However, from command line, I see:

footer@kubuntu64:~$ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
flashplugin-installer is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded

The version of flash I have installed is the latest: adobe-flashplugin_11.2.202.350

I've tried reinstalling (sudo apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-installer) and also removing and installing, restarted Chrome, etc. Still no go!

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Chromium is a different package than Chrome from the Google repository.

Maybe you need to install pepperflashplugin-nonfree. Pepper is part of the Chrome install:

That did the trick! Thanks so much for the prompt response. Flash is now working flawlessly under 14.04! Didn't realize the difference between Chrome / Chromium. Thanks again!!
