How to install Adobe Flash on Linux Centos?
 

Hello all, As you can see I am very newbie in Linux. I need to install Adobe Flash Player, Shockwave and Acrobat reader on linux. Does anyone know how to install these applications? I downloaded the Flash Player and unzipped it in a folder in Desktop

If you use firefox, you can just copy the libflashplayer.so file to the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory and when you restart your browser, flash should work for you.

If you're using CentOS, then you can just use yum for adding new packages. Try using and . The Flash plugin and the reader are available in the rpmforge repository, which should be enabled by default on a CentOS installation.

also "Acrobat reader " is not needed
you can use the installed "evince" it is part of Gnome

also you might want to read the CentOS wiki
http://wiki.centos.org/FrontPage
and the red hat RHEL documentation for the current 5.5 ( CentOS 6 is NOT out yet)
