CentOS 5 :: Adobe Flash Player Works In Xfce But Not KDE Or GNOME?
Jun 28, 2009
Just recently instralled CentOS 5.3 and I'm loving it! Not a pro by all means in linux, but i do know my way around a bit (previously used RHEL, Fedora and Ubuntu distros).
As my topic states, for some stupid reason Flash works just fine in Xfce, but when i change desktop environments it comes up with the screen "You need to install Adobe Flash Player 8" or something to that effect. Seriously... the f**k?!
Mind you I only found that by mistake - spent all night reading faqs, blogs, fora etc. trying to get the bloody thing working in KDE - full of obsolete tips and URLs unfortunately (plenty of help running 32-bit flash in 64-bit kernel!). I then changed to Xfce to check something else, and it worked fine, no warnings!!
I wanna install adobe flash player with yum but it fails to download, I think there may be something wrong with the repositories. Totally, could you give me a step by step instruction for installing the flash player.. i have already tried downloading it from adobe web site for linux and rpm (yum) but i couldn't install it. i also had NOKEY letter in the result
I just installed Adobe Flash Player 10 and it says it's installed, when I go to firefox and Epiphany it still has flash player 9, Ive quited the browsers and everything Ive uninstalled/reinstalled still no luck.
I can't import the key, can anyone tell me why or what i'm doing wrong? I'm trying to install Adobe Flash Player and am trying to follow the instructions below.[URL]...
I installed Fedora 13. It seems, i can't use Adobe flash player, although i have install it. I cant look at movies from dvd and it seems the Empathy also don-t work. It shows i am available, but don't sows me my contacts. I want to use msn messenger.
I'm an happy new user of Ubuntu 11.04, and I wasn't able to get Adobe Flash Player 10.XXX.normally released for Ubuntu versions up to 10.04. Anybody can help this newcomer to linux world?
How do I get Adobe Flash Player installed in Debian 6.0.0 (Squeeze?) I went to a couple of sites and tried typing into terminal what they suggested but to no avail. One of the commands had the sideways wavy line in it, but I do not have that key on my Toshiba L-455 Satellite laptop. Could anyone please asist me in getting Adobe Flash Player or the plug in installed.
I am running F13 64 bit . I tried to install Adobe Flash Player, which downloads a adobe down loader, this didn't work the first time and when I try to re-download the package installer in Gnome says its already installed. I am stuck as to what to do next I can use terminal etc, I not a complete noob, fairly noob but not totally. I just need a poke in the right direction.
i have tried to install adobe flash player on fedora 14 but wjen i check if it is installed i can't watch any videos on videos.....i have rebooted but nothing happened, also i trtructions and nothing happened neither.finally i tried a command [codesu -c 'yum install nspluginwrapper alsa-plugins-pulseaudio flash-plugin][/code] but it tells me that there it is on the latest version and already installed.......
A couple of the sites I go to, very professional and legit sites, tell me I need Adobe flash player. Now that I don't run anything with Ubuntu other then a FW is this safe? What about "NoScript" for Firefox?
i am running ubuntu 10.04 i installed ubuntu restricted extras, and i went on videos. although i can view the video, i can't click on pause, the volume controls, or seek through the video, or put it into fullscreen mode. i went into the software center and searched "adobe flash player", and it came up with adobe flash plugin 10. it doesn't have an "install" button on it, so i double-clicked it, and it said " sorry, 'adobe flash plugin 10' is not available for this type of computer (amd64)."
I have a Ubuntu(64-bit) installed on my PC. I am new to Linx and as that there are several versions of adobe flash player (such as YUM, .rpm, .deb) available for 64-bit Linux. I want to know that which version is suitable for 64 bit Ubuntu so my browser wiould be able to run the ..... videos.
why my adobe flash player is not working in ubuntu. i have installed it many times with synaptic manager and even reinstalled it but it does not work at all.
recently updated to the 11.04 version and am not able to view ..... videos etc as it says i need to install the version of adobe and whenever i go to the adobe website and try to install through ubuntu software centre it says Wrong architecture 'i386'.
I am on Linux Mint, and I can't figure out how to install Adobe Flash Player. When I tried typing the following, sudo apt-get Install flashplayerplugin-nonfree..It says that everything was installed, but when I go to ..... and other video sites, the flash player won't work.
Does anyone know the correct procedure for upgrading Adobe Flash Player. I just installed Linux Mint Debian and noticed that my flash plugin is the old Shockwave Flash.
I've tried downloading the latest Flash Player from adobe. I unzipped it, and moved libflashplayer.so to where I thought the plugin directory was.
My main problem is that I don't know where to look for the plugin file. I tried /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins but as much as I played with the 'libflashplayer.so' file there, I could neither remove the plugin nor upgrade it. I've also tried the /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree directory but once again, I was unable to affect the plugin.
My daughter bought a cnm netbook with linux, i have downloaded adobe flash player so she can play her games, but i cant open it, also i have connected wirelessly but i cant get a website to come up.

I would like to install Adobe Flash Player 10 as Swfdec annoys me.I have searched a lot on Google, but not really understand how what I should do. Some will help?I am running with Debian 5.0 and kernel 2.6.26-1-686. I use Iceweasel as "default" browser.

As a newbie to linux, I just installed fedora 12 on my labtop.I am having problems installing my lemark 6600 series wireless printer and also having serrious issues with adobe flash player.Another issue i have is that I cant log in as root user.
I have used the command timidity -EFreverb=0 -iA -Os so that I can hear sound when I use tuxguitar. My problem now is that I can no longer hear sound when browsing the internet. My web browser is Firefox. By right clicking my mouse on the websites where I cannot hear sound a dialog box about adobe flash player 9 appears. There have not been any error messages.
I just installed Fedora 11 on my Sony Vaio laptop. I couldn't stand Windows Vista any longer. I installed Fedora 11 just fine with no issues. But I seem to be having trouble installing programs such as Adobe Flash Player, Reader, Limewire, Java pluggin, etc. Everytime I try to install these, it says for example "Could not display "/home/blackout87gn/Download/jre-6u16-linux-i586-rpm.bin". This was for the Java file I downloaded. I made sure that all these files I downloaded were for Linux. So being the newb that I am, can someone point me in the right direction on how to install these applications? Also what does .rpm .bin .deb and .tar.gz represent?
