Can't get flash-plugin working in FF3 ??
Hi; The subject of media has been something I have avoided, so I am a newbie at understanding what I might be doing wrong. I am running F9 -x86_64 and FireFox3. Yum shows me flash-plugin (Adobe Flash Plugin 9.0.124.0 arch i386) is installed. Firefox 'about:plugin' shows me flash-plugin is NOT installed. After download and installation I re-booted just to sure and no joy. What could I be doing wrong? Where should I look? Is there an arch mis-match? Dumb question: Is there a Linux substitute for Adobe Flash? -- Regards Bill; Fedora 9, Gnome 2.22.2 Evo.2.22.2, Emacs 22.2.1 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

Dumb question: Is there a Linux substitute for Adobe Flash? Indeed there are substitutes and alternatives, but IHMO / experience, none of them are as good as Flash 9. The way I got this to work reliably on 64-bit F9 was to read and follow the instructions on Section 10.5.1 of the F9 Release Notes. You can even copy / paste the specific commands to complete the task if you like. For the sake of convenience, the F9 US English Release Notes are found at: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f9/en_US/ Hope that helps!

Don't know why I didn't think of going to the release notes. I guess I just assumed Flash should automagically download and install. -- Regards Bill; Fedora 9, Gnome 2.22.2 Evo.2.22.2, Emacs 22.2.1 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
