I just re-install my laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Linx. When I looking for resources on the internet, I accidentally found out that Adobe has discontinued the Adobe Flash Player 64 bits for Linux project! For the record, I use the AMD Turion 64 processor. So automatically I became intrigued by this news.After searching on Google, I found the answer in the Adobe Official Website about this notification. Apparently the news was true, but there are also additional note. Adobe discontinued Adobe Flash Player 64 bits for Linux project, but only temporarily. Remember, it's only temporary! As noted in the official announcement:
"We have temporarily closed the Labs program of Flash Player 10 for 64-bit Linux, as we are making significant architectural changes to the 64-bit Linux Flash Player and additional security enhancements. We are fully committed to bringing native 64-bit Flash Player for the desktop by providing native support for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux 64-bit platforms in an upcoming major release of Flash Player. We intend to provide more regular update information on our progress as we continue our work on 64-bit versions of Flash Player. Thank you for your continued help and support. Stay tuned to the Flash Player discussion forum for further announcements."
We do not know what Adobe reason to stop the project. What is clear, of course, just wait we can do.
