satelliteuser083 Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 I'm sure that this is a very simple process, but I can't do it. I've downloaded a plug-in for FF but don't know where to put it (so that FF can install the thing). I'm using LE2005 and FF is version 1.0.4 (I think; it says 1.0.2 but I upgraded it to get SessionSaver to work). Any tips, please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aioshin Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 (edited) If you install firefox via urpmi, then it usually be installed at /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox-1.0.7/ . and /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox-1.0.7/plugins/ for the plugins, that is... the plugin will be available to all.. . if you install firefox from the installer you get from their website, then you usually it will be /usr/local/firefox . and for the plugins /usr/local/firefox/plugins . hope I dont mis-lead you :P Edited December 20, 2005 by aioshin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If yes then just open the file in FF (File\Open file). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satelliteuser083 Posted December 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 aioshin and dexter11: I downloaded the file (install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz) from www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer, unpacked it and followed the installation-instructions in the readme.txt; this resulted in an automatic installation, so I didn't need to know where to put the plug-in, FF did it for me. Great stuff!! :P Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
