Public bug reported:

11.2 r202 of the Adobe Flash plugin from Canonical Partners does not
load correctly on 10.04 and above and gives a "missing plugin" error in
Chromium and in Firefox. If a user installs Google Chrome and uses the
built in plugin, the Flash plays as it should.

I also tested creating a symlink to the libgcflashplayer.so file so
Firefox and Chromium can use it, and it played without issues. Even
renaming libgcflashplayer.so to libflashplayer.so and placing in the
/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/ had Flash movies playing as they should.

This could be an issue with the version supplied by the Canonical
Partners repository because the exact same version supplied by Google
Chrome works without "missing plugin" errors.
