help with Installing flash shockware on firefox
 

I have downloaded the file of install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz, then i have extracted the files.

when i installed the files... I had to enter the path of my browser which is

/root/firefox/firefox but it doesnt work.

What shall i do

Thanks.

The path to firefox should be /usr/lib/*something*
Running this command shoud tell you the full path:
ls /usr/lib | echo "/usr/lib/`grep firefox`"

*Note* `` <--these are backtics(above left tab) not singlequotes

The flash player installer asks for the browser installation directory, eg /usr/local/firefox, not the path of the browser executable.

In your case, /root/firefox, not /root/firefox/firefox.

Does this mean you are running as root, and not a user ? Not such a good idea if you are...

Thanks IBall, you were right, I only had to enter /root/firefox


Thanks.
