Now when i open synaptic manager it gives an error run command "sudo dpkg --configure -a" in terminal.

Here is what you need to do: (Im assuming you have flash 11 and firefox 14.0.1):

  1. Download this file : http://www.ziddu.com/download/20225702/libflashplayer.zip.html

  2. Create a folder "plugins" under "/home/YOUR-USER-NAME/.mozilla/firefox/"

    Like this: /home/leopard/.mozilla/firefox/plugins

  3. Extract the zip and copy the downloaded "libflashplayer.so" to "/home/leopard/.mozilla/firefox/plugins"

  4. Open nautilus as Admin. Go to "/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin". Delete the "libflashplayer.so" there.
  5. Copy the extracted "libflashplayer.so" there.

  6. Restart firefox.

I had the same problem with adobe flash. I`m using lxde with a different icon theme than the original, and when I switched back to the original theme the problem went away. Hope that this can help.
