Hi all, Flash Player 9 for Linux came out of beta yesterday. I had a little hiccup installing it on my Etch box, so I thought I'd share my solution to spare you the hiccup. I use Firefox version 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.7-2.
The installer will ask "Please enter the installation path...", and when you enter the correct path, /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox, it will complain: WARNING: Please enter a valid installation path. This is because it is looking for /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/components, which does not exist (and which Flash does not apparently need). You can: 1. Create the directory. The installer will be happy. or 2. Skip the (lame) installer and copy libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins yourself. (I haven't tried this.) Good luck, Reid -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
