Flashplayer in Debian Etch AMD 64
I've seen other posts similar to this one, but all of them gave instructions that didn't seem to work on my computer. I understand that I need nspluginwrapper (and have downloaded that), but whenever instructions tell me to restart iceweasel, nothing changed. If anyone could offer help, it would be much appreciated!
Thanks, Jenny |

Yeah, I seen this problem also.
I needed x-application-shockwave-flash plugin. I dont think this is oss so thats kinda hard to get. |
If you can't figure it out, You should be using one of the hand-holding distros that sets it up for you ... not Debian.
If you're running Etch, add backports.org to your sources.list file, then ... # aptitude flashplugin-nonfree That's it, and it's embarrassingly easy. If it doesn't work, it's not Debian's fault. |
Another way is to point your apt list to www.debian-multimedia.org, and install the package that way. It used to be you had to do everything by hand, installing the plugin wrapper, the plugin, etc, but now, just install the package, and you're done.
Assuming, of course, that you have no moral objections (using non-free packages) on your setup. |
