Flashplayer in Fedora - quick fix that worked!
 
Just wanted to let folks know...I was trying to install Flashplayer in Mozilla 1.4.1 with the Fedora distro - I went through all the forums and tried a hundred things...then I found this - just typed in the line as root and it worked like a charm.

ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3

Hope this helps someone...

All the best,

TreeDragon60

holly crap, you're a lifesaver. thanks man!!! I finally have Flash after fighting for the past month with it and the number of other posts below. And thanks to everyone else for the help as well.

awsome, thanks man!

coincidentally i was just reinstalling thinking i messed something up because of flash not working :D (i came from redhat 9 where i installed it without a hitch)

all for the best, i installed KDE 3.2, something i wont do this round through, kinda instable, like a beta. Konkerer crashes often, sometimes just from creating and moving directories. i noticed that a bit in Core 2 Test 1's KDE 3.2 also. i dont need it anyways for now, i am going to be using fluxbox and will just be using the KDE environment for anything i cant do in fluxbox.

thanks again man, btw, why does this do the trick? :)

Finally Flash works, wonderful!! Now I just have to get it working in Opera and not just Netscape. Then one on to java and making it work.

You can also install the compat-gcc-c++XXXX.rpm file included with Fedora and that works as well.

Excellent, I was getting increasingly annoyed trying to install J2EE 1.4 (same problem) - I tried everything suggested elsewhere to fix the problem - tried this last night and it worked a charm.

Thanks!
