Macromedia error

I'm trying to play a few games in minijuegos and others, but i need to have Macromedia Flash Player installed.

I've installed the all the SWF packages related to Macromedia and SWF i found in the Synaptic package manager.

However when i try to play some game, i get this message:

Code:

The SWF file caused a fatal error in the swfdec decoder.  This likely means that there is a bug in swfdec.

It's probably not the best solution, but you could try downloading and installing the latest version of flash player from adobe
It won't get updated by your package manager this way, so keep that in mind.

but that link shows me the download version for windows, and for Debian Linux, no macromedia from adobe?

hm, that page probably detects your current operating system. You're posting from windows now right?
maybe these links work:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get...lease.i386.rpm (rpm)
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get...9_linux.tar.gz (.tar.gz)
...hopefully they don't block hotlinking.
