[SOLVED] Flash for Chromium-64-bit

ursusca · 06-21-2010, 06:50 AM

Hello everyone,

Adobe has discontinued the 64-bit linux version of flash-player. How can I get flash-player-32bit working in Chromium-64bit on Fedora 13 (x86_64)?

Thanks,

Fedora, just like RHEL/CentOS should install both i386 and x86_64 packages when you install x86_64 system.

If this is so, then this can apply to you to. I installed flash-player.i386... and it just works for my x86_64 Firefox 3.6.3.

Hello DrLove73, thank you for attention to my question. I've installed flash-player.i386 too and it works for my x86_64 Firefox but doesn't work for Chromium browser.

Then use Firefox?

I have never even clicked on chromium, so I can not help you there. Try thoroughly searching internet, or ask on chromium support forums.

You could use the older (and less secure) 64-bit version of the flash plugin.

Hello,

I've recreated my flash-plugin using nspluginwrapper

Code:

/usr/lib64/nspluginwrapper/plugin-setup -i /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so

Next I've just copied everithing from /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins-wrapped to /usr/lib64/chromium-browser/plugins and chromium works now

Code:

ls -la /usr/lib64/chromium-browser/plugins
