My understanding is that you can't. Check above site.
If you download Chrome, they use a different flash, and it should work. This might help with COMCAST/XFINITY. Hope that works.

So you are saying download Chrome and then open comcast.com in that browser and see if it works?

What is the output of :

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

Thanks

Yes, Chrome comes with the lastest flash version available on Linux. Google took over the development of Flash for Chrome on Linux, mainly bacause the ability of Adobe to support Linux was very poor all the time. Unluckily the new versions of Flash that come with Chrome do not run in other browsers.
So you will need to download it from https://www.google.com/chrome . Choose the 32-bit version for Debian/Ubuntu. If you open the downlaoded .deb file, the software center should open and allow easy installation with one click and supplying your password.
