Installing Flash Plugin for Firefox


Adobe


Create the file in the repository folder.

su -c 'rpm -ivh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch.rpm'

* When that has been installed edit the repo file to look like the following.

su -c 'gedit /etc/yum.repos.d/adobe-linux-i386.repo'

[adobe-linux-i386]
name=Adobe Systems Incorporated
baseurl=http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/i386/
enabled=0
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux


* Install the Flash Plugin


su -c 'yum install flash-plugin'
* If you don't hear audio during playback of flash video just install packet called libflashsupport


su -c 'yum install libflashsupport'


Installation without Adobe repository: Install Flash Player 10:



su -c 'rpm -ivh http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/flash-plugin-10.0.12.36-release.i386.rpm'


* 64bit Flash

Make sure to uninstall flash-plugin, libflashsupport and nspluginwrapper before you do these steps

tar xvzf libflashplayer-10.0.d20.7.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz -C ~/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins
