Did my homework, googled(for 2 days), discoveed only 32 bit acroread available of linux, found the Adobe download site and tried to download
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/unix/9.x/9.1.3/enu/AdbeRdr9.1.3-1_i386linux_enu.deb. I suppose that the "enu" stands for English language, maybe universal or something to that effect. I started the download and it appeared to download(status bar shows progress until it completes then nothing. Can't find the download in my Desktop or anywhere else. sudo updatedb followed by locate <filename shown above> only returns the cursor line. During the download or as it is finishing a popup appears(gdebi I think) saying its the wrong architecture appears and I know that but why doesn't the default FF browser download it. If it did, I would use sudo dpkg --force-architecture <file name.deb> to install it as I did for my Brother printer which worked ok. Always have been able to download from the internet before? read the ubuntu howtos. However, Canonical and medibuntu don't have or wont download acroread.
Would appreciate any who can tell me how:
find a ubuntu or canonical repo to download acroread
or why the file wouldn't download with ff-3.5 on Karmic Beta
or any help to get acroread installed on my Beta install because
I want acroread instead of a ubuntu substitute.
Thanks for any help

There used to be an Acroread 32/64 release available at Medibuntu, I
have it (V. 8.1.3 for Intrepid - can't remember if it was the buggy
one) and it runs perfectly on Jaunty 64 and Shiretoko (Firefox) 3.5.3.
Seems it is not available anymore.
The page is http://packages.medibuntu.org/intrepid/acroread.html but
the internal links seem to be broken.
