Shockwave Flash for OpenSuse 64 bit
Greetings - I've attempted to install Flashplugin on my 64 bit machine, unfortunately, no go. Is the 64 bit the problem? Any ideas for a workaround? Thanks!

Well, since you didn't provide the error message or any other useful information, I am presuming that you got this message when you attempted to execute the installer:
Code:
ERROR: Your architecture, \'x86_64\', is not supported by the Adobe Flash Player installer. Code:
wget http://svn.cross-lfs.org/svn/repos/patches/flashplayer/flashplayer-9.0.31.0-allowx86_64-1.patch && |
No error message
All I get is that when I go to youtube or some other video in Firefox is the same message - Plugin missing. Nothing else. I've installed it from rpm more than a few times and it's not being recognized.

You are likely using a 64-bit version of Firefox. To use Flash Player, you must use a 32-bit version of Firefox. Once again, if OpenSuSE 64-bit is standards compliant, then installing a 32-bit version of Firefox is trivial.

You can also use nspluginwrapper to run 32 bit plug-ins in a 64 bit Firefox.
