need to install latest java and Flash player

As far as java goes download this:
http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=59621

For flash use firefox and install the addon called
Flash-aid 2.2.3

Can you give the output of:

uname -a; lsb_release-a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'

and I can advise without any 'flashaid' nonsense.

Here is an excelent article about installing Oracle Java ( I need/use this version because of my net banking)

or
http://askubuntu.com/questions/67909/how-do-i-install-oracles-jdk-6

By the way, askubuntu.com has an excelent forum for your question.

I am quite new to ubuntu. Do you mean I put

uname -a; lsb_release-a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark'

on a terminal?

thank's for feedback

Yeah, copy that into the terminal, and paste the output of what it gives you here.

You received this question notification because you asked the question.

Sorry and the output of:

lsb_release -a

Thanks

You are welcome Nikos,

The directions that you received from the other users are also VERY relevant if you would like to have more in-depth knowledge of the Linux system and how it works.

The command "lsb_release -a" returns information about your system that is helpful in determining the correct answers to be given.
In the future, no matter what system you try, please include this information with your question.

I assume that you are a new user and hope that the information you receive here helps you in your journey into this world of Linux.

Welcome.

this is what I get:

nikos@nikos-M2010:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 11.10
Release: 11.10
Codename: oneiric
nikos@nikos-M2010:~$

. It is java applets That do not run on my computer. Flash applets run
fine. Can you help me?

thank's
