In the new cooking I can install the flashplayer. I downloaded and I copied the libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib but the flashplayer still isn' working. Who knows the way?
@KDE + @minilin thanks to both of you. My mistake was I didn't copy to /usr/lib/firefox*/plugins only to /usr/lib. Npw it works. Now the package seems to be modified (It works just after get-flash-plugin). Klaus
hey, I'm new to this. I'm trying to paste libflashplayer.so into /usr/lib/firefox*/plugins but when I do it says "permission denied". i checked and i don't have write access to that folder. what should i do? thanks in advance
I finally got my flash player working, after several failures. Here's how mine got going. First, I did upgrade all packages (don't know if that helped or not).
Second (logged in as root), I ran from Xterm "tazpkg get-install get-flash-plugin", then waited till that was complete.
Next, from Xterm, "get-flash-plugin". This took a while, so I just let it run until Xterm said that was finished.
I did not have to copy libflashplayer.so from one directory to another. The installer put it into /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, and now it is working in Midori. Thanks to everybody who worked on this. This old AMD K6-400 is getting a new life.
Ah, I spoke too soon. After rebooting and logging in as "Tux", flash does not work. I am a total Noob to this, but have used every flavor of DOS and Windows from 1984 forward. I am not used to having to dig this deep into getting stuff installed; for a very, very long time.
