Did you check if flasher been installed under /usr/bin/ ? Probably more like /usr/local/bin/ so you could try sudo /usr/local/bin/flasher-3.5... If not, try "find / -name flasher-3.5" to find it.

hi thanks for the reply, i have checked that flasher-3.5 is in usr/bin/ foilder and it is,
i have also tried cd to usr/bin/

and this doenst make a difference!
im going to uninstall flasher and reinstall

i tried

sudo apt-get remove flasher-3.5 and got error

E: Couldn't find package flasher-3.5


so possibly a problem with the installation of flasher?

The --force-architecture option is not needed. And from the above command, it looks it the package didn't get installed because of the space between maemo and _flasher. A re-install should work.

Code:
sudo dpkg -i maemo_flasher-3.5_2.5.2.2_i386.deb

Instead of downloading the .deb file you can try to use the
tar.gz one. Download the file und unpack it. So, you don't need
use dpkg :-)
