daniewicz Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 go to the adobe website http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/do...=ShockwaveFlash and download the tar.gz file extract libflashplayer.so and copy it to ~/.mozilla/plugins This assumes you are using firefox as your browser.

dexter11 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 go to the adobe website http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/do...=ShockwaveFlash and download the tar.gz file extract libflashplayer.so and copy it to ~/.mozilla/plugins This assumes you are using firefox as your browser. For those who try to install Flash this way: there is an rpm package of Flash. Just install it and it works under Mandriva. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
