is this not enough?

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main
deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org jessie main non-free
No, that's not enough. You only have non-free enabled for the unofficial deb-multimedia repository. And you don't even have the main repository enabled at all, only the updates. No wonder you don't find much available.

As a result the URL you proposed always meets me with "Forbidden!' page.
linuxquestions.org policy is more human and they allow me come here after additional 'whitewashing' login.
I can't change the provider, they are the only ones around here and they don't care for my inconveniences.
Anyway, I do appreciate you link even if I can't use it. You're a very kind individual.
thank you again.

sorry sgosnell,

I also have this

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main

deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main

but ommitted it as it has no 'non-free' in it.

thank you for your attention

yours`

Yup, that's the main repository, and you do not indeed have non-free enabled.

To enable non-free (and contrib), change it to deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free

you anticipated my answer to mr.d.poston,
I don't care for statistics collection, it's just I can't find chrome for my 32-bit PC.

thank you

P.P.S.:

sorry, I apologize for a misleading "oops".
As stated in my previous message I've installed the advised plugin
and Synoptic says that it is the latest version of
Code:
pepperflashplugin-nonfree 1.8.1
and now when at youtube instead of transient
Quote:
"you brouser doesn't support..."
(I couldn't read it till end - the message kept disappearing too fast)
there is a steady notification:
Quote:
couldn't load plugin
Isn't it an 'oops'?
Whereto from here?

yours`
