AleLinuxBSD · 09-17-2010, 01:06 AM

I have already removed the previously 32 bit release.

Now i have download the package from adobe and i put the file
libflashplayer.so
on:
/usr/lib/flashplayer
and
/usr/lib64/flashplayer
the link on:
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins
and
/usr/lib64/firefox/plugins

but absolutely no flash using about : plugins.

usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ would be the correct place.

Code:

 ls -l /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

You can also put it in ./mozilla/plugins

Same problem as before.

Debian 5.0 'Lenny' amd64

In September 2010 Adobe announced Flash Player "Square". As of September 17 it is a fully working preview release.

Flash Player Square Installation

First remove the version you may have installed (it's probably a 32 bit version or too old):

$ apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree nspluginwrapper (the same applies to the 32bit version from debian-multimedia)

Get the Flash Player "Square" binary from Adobe (look for the Download plug-in for 64-bit Linux (TAR.GZ, 4.1 MB) link.

Extract the tar ball:

$ tar xvzf flashplayer_square_p1_64bit_linux_091510.tar.gz

As root copy the extracted file to the mozilla plugins folder(this will work with Google Chrome as well):

$ cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been waiting forever for Adobe to get their act together and give us a 64bit libflashplayer.
Thanks for the heads-up, Craigevil.

ciao,

I copied the file libflashplayer.so here:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10601968 19 set 20.07 libflashplayer.so

And, automatically, was copied by the system even here:
