running/installing adobe connect in ubuntu 10?

I am unable to install Adobe Connect in Ubuntu 10.

After installation, I did not see anything happen.

I found the Adobe Connect Addin executable at /usr/local-- "connectaddin" is the icon.

When i double-click on the icon, I get a small window  with the title "Adobe Connect" and the text "Loading Adobe Connect..."  inside it.

Nothing happens after that.

Any thoughts? Suggestions?

After installation you would not see anything happen until you need to join a meeting.

You simply join an Adobe Connect meeting room by clicking on an invitation URL a host sends you via email. Or if you know the name of a room on an Adobe Connect Server, then you can type that into your browser. When you click that URL, your browser will launch, the Adobe Connect Add-in will launch as well and you should be entered into the room for the meeting.

Is that clear?

Thanks so much for responding.

Yes, that's clear.

So, when I run the diagnostic utility, it says everything works.

Is there anything like a adobe connect  test meeting to make sure that all features are working?

thanks much!

Sure.  Try using my server and test room.

Make sure Adobe Flash 10.1 is installed please!

Let me know if you run into anything.  Please communicate with me here directly:  hdrummon@adobe.com

I am currently running Arch Linux on my netbook. Unfortunately, the connect 8 add-in .deb package will not install on this particular distribution of linux. I've attempted to convert the .deb package to tar.gz and then install but it does not work. I also performed the connect addin test and it tells me that the addin is missing and necessary. However, I was just able to open up the test room linked above. For some reason, the test room loads but none of the connect rooms I use for work load up. Those rooms will get stuck at "Connecting....". What is the different between the your test room and the connect rooms I use for work?

Thanks
