Info needed 64 bit Man 2010


Is there any updated info on Shockwave, Java, Adobe downloads for the 64 bit version of Mandriva 2010?
The sticky notes are very old and for earlier versions of Mandriva.
Thanks

PS Post LINKS please....

You should be able to get Java 1.6.x from the Mandriva Package Manager. The package name is java-1.6.0-sun and it is version 1.6.0.16

I have not seen any Acrobat Reader for 64-bit Linux, but you can get the 32-bit Adobe reader from adobe.com. I personally prefer using Okular here (a KDE app)

You can get the 64-bit Flash Player from the Adobe Labs Flash Player 10 for 64-bit Linux WEB page.

The first link gets the file itself, the second link goes to the WEB page.

Note: This download is a tarball. To install it, open a terminal window and su to root (su -).
Create a flashplayer directory (mkdir /usr/lib64/flashplayer).

Switch to the new directory (cd /usr/lib64/flashplayer).

Uncompress the archive (unzip /home/username/libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz) - replace username with your user account's directory name.

extract the file (tar -xf /home/username/libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz) - replace username with your user account's directory name.

Check that the file has been extracted (ls)
The file (libflashplayer.so*) should be listed under /usr/lib64/flashplayer if all is well.

HTH,
