Flashplayer hates my x86_64 OS

RedHatCat · 07-29-2005, 07:33 AM

Hello,

I have a problem installing flash player on a Xeon EMT64 Server running RHEL ES 3u3. I have tried an rpm for the 32bit equivalent of my OS, but no joy, and the source tar.gz simply bombs out with an "Flash player wont run on 64bit platforms" type of message.

Is there any way I can force single processes/app to run in 32bit compat mode? I installed all the legacy support & compatability options during the install, and I've had no issues setting up other programs I know are 32bit.

Cheers

Yep, There isnt a 64bit bit flash plugin for linux nor windows. The only
thing you can do is install a 32bit browser and install the 32bit flash plugin.
