My Linux knowledge of commands isn't good enough to know what's happened here - does the command have too many spaces in it? What does ~ mean in this context? was i supposed to replace the ~ with something?
Just do:
mv install_flash_player_9_linux/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/
The xpt file is missing because adobe changed the installer. Scroll down and read comments on previous link.
If it doesn't work, post output of "ls -l" in current directory. Also "ls -l install_flash_player_9_linux".
Do any of you have a problem with Flash video being slow and choppy? I have Debian running on my Athlon desktop with an NVidia video adapter and 640 megabytes of RAM and Flash video is very choppy. I also have Debian running on a Pentium III notebook with an ATI video adapter and 256 megabytes of RAM and Flash video is normal.
