If flash 10 is already in synaptic manager then there is probably no
need to download directly from adobe in the first place and you may as
well install from there.

I don't use ubuntu myself so can't guarentee but I would imagine it
will do the same.

You need to specify the package name. For example if you download the
package to /home/claire/Download you would run something like:

dpkg -i /home/claire/Download/install_flash_player_10_linux.deb

Let me know if you have any problems. If necessary i can probably find
a copy of ubuntu to install in virtualbox to troubleshoot further.
