I don't normally forward this kind of thing, but given the amount of traffic about Flash here I figured this could an excusable exception. http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/ See also http://linux.slashdot.org/linux/08/11/17/168212.shtml poc

They have no rpm and their instructions suck, but the plugin itself seems to be ok. I've been using it for a few days. Here is what I did to install it so that all the users could have access: yum erase flash-plugin.i386 nspluginwrapper.x86_64 nspluginwrapper.i386 cd /tmp wget http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0... tar -xvzf libflashplayer-10.0.d20.7.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S. Rupprecht http://www.full-steam.org/ (ipv6-only) You may need to config 6to4 to see the above pages.

Thanks Wolfgang!!!

Glad to be of help Gregory.

Do you know if this flash player has sound capabliity? The graphics worked fine, but there was no sound.

In theory it does have sound, although on a few of my Fedora-10 systems pulseaudio problems keep the sound from working for many applications (not just adobe flash). Maybe you are seeing something similar? Sorry, I have no advice for the Fedora audio problem in general. It seems to be a mess. -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S.

youtube works perfectly on my 64 bit F10. no crashes no odd behaviours. I am rather pleased with Adobe after a long time. :)

Thanks Wolfgang!!! Your syntax was perfect along with poc's advice to leave nsplugwrapper in place. Do you know if this flash player has sound capabliity? The graphics worked fine, but there was no sound. Greg Ennis

It's not necessary to remove nspluginwrapper, which is used for other stuff besides Flash. Just don't configure it for the flash plugin. poc

Indeed it is, though I wish they had an RPM version available. Their instructions say to remove all previous Flash plugins before installing. I wonder if they will be starting a new repository: adobe-linux-x86_64.repo???? Maybe after they release the 64 bit verision for real? I can only hope so! This could be the one that opens the floodgates for other x86_84 packages!
