Finally, after weeks of trying, i found a solution to install Flash 9 on Ubuntu for AMD64 platform. For your guys information, Macromedia refuses to recompile the Flash and Shockwave players for 64 bit Linux. A petition had been running for this matter.

Anyway, i came across a thread at Ubuntu forum using nspluginwrapper to install flash on AMD64 platform.

This script will install the nspluginwrapper, and Flash for your 64bit browser. It will not install other plugins. There are other plugins, java being one, that nspluginwrapper can not work with. The script has been updated on 8/21/07. It no longer uses alien, and it will clean out previous installs.
Click here if you want to download the script for Feisty.
Click here if you want to download the script for Edgy or Dapper.

*note that this script does not work for Gutsy Gibbon.

The script also works with the 64bit builds of Swiftweasel, an optimized build of Firefox.

****There is a test version for the 2.0 version of the script here. Its only for Feisty***** If you use this version please make a post on how works.

Instructions
1. Download the script.
2. Right click on the tar.gz and select “Extract Here”
3. Close all browsers.
4. Inside the folder that extracts is a “GetFlash” file, double click on it.
5. Select “Run in Terminal”
6. When the terminal closes, restart your browser.
