can't install Adobe Flash on Lubuntu

The options for installation mention Ubuntu, but not lubuntu, is there some way to install flash for Lubuntu?

try visiting adobe website, installing flash from inside the browser, or just using synaptic or software center

'sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree'

.. or use 'synaptic' for the install, as said by @yooy

..

There shouldn't be any difference.

Indeed. Lubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Ubuntu, and many others are all one distribution, just with different software installed by default and different branding.

It didn't work for me from either terminal or Synaptic Package Manager. Using terminal I got the error - Package 'flashplugin-nonfree' has no installation candidate.

I think it's now called "flashplugin-installer"
