Find your terminal in the menu and open it.

cut and paste this into terminal

Code:

sudo apt-get update
Type in your password when asked. Nothing will show when you type it in. Don't freak out. It is accepting your password.

Hit the enter key. A lot of text will scroll by. Don't freak out. Let it finish. When done updating to latest packages.

Cut and paste this comkmand next.

Code:

sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
Rinse and repeat with password (if asked) and enter key.

When done installing. Log out and back in again. Then start iceweasel and flash will be installed and you can watch videos.

If it doesn't play on opensuse, on what system does it play? Have you installed the flashplayer plugin on opensuse?
