adobe has stopped supporting flash on Linux. Even if you can find a working older plugin, it won't have the ability to handle DRM stuff like Netflix. The current "best" solution is to install pipelight -- which sets up a modified wine instance that allows Linux browsers to use native windows versions of plugins. It is far from perfect, but it will get you a fully functional flash environment -- albeit a slightly buggy one.
