    Hi everyone,

    I am trying to run flash content from websites like youtube, metacafe, etc., on chrome web browser installed on ubuntu. The version of chrome is the most recent beta release.

    After installation of the browser I followed these steps:
    1. added a symbolic link to /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so in the directory /opt/google/chrome/plugins
    2. executed the following command
    /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome --enable-plugins

    This opened the google chrome browser and when I went to www.metacafe.com I got the following error:

    [[[ ERROR BEGIN ]]]

    Once I click on a video on the metacafe.com page to play it, I get the following error in the command window:

    According to the errors there is something wrong with the plug ins and the downloading the plug ins. Basically your browser or your OS don't have the settings that can set the new plug-ins to the browser.
