adobe flash files etc..

ve1drg · 06-28-2014, 09:46 AM

I need to get files to bring firefox up to speed with respect to flash and other adobe needs.

Right now I have gone to slackBuild and donwloaded and installed:
flashplayer-plugin and
libflashsupport...

And things are still incomplete. Videos don't seem to work.
Must be more files are needed. Where do I get them. And what are they called.

I downloaded and installed pepperflash from slackbuilds, it seems to be working OK.
There is a flashplayer plugin in the extra directory of your Slackware 14.1 install, did you try that one?

You can also download and install up to date pre-built packages from Eric H. (Slackware developer).

You may need to make a symlink to the plugin at ~/.mozilla/

Like so:

Code:

$ mkdir -p ~/.mozilla/plugins

Dependent on which architecture you're running, either:

Code:

$ ln -s /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/

Code:

$ ln -s /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/
