How do I add Macromedia Flash to Firefox?

#1 Post by papaschtroumpf »

I know I saw instructions somewhere on how to add it (in my case to firefox) but I can't find it.
Will have to figure it out on my own :)

Is this what you're looking for? Let me know if it works and I'll put it in the index.

The solution has been posted a couple of times, and I thought Lobster stated that he was putting it into the wiki.

Anyway, real simple, just grab it out of the Mozilla plugins folder (/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins), put it in the Firefox plugins folder. Just two files, no other setup required.

yeah, I figured it out. it's pretty large but increases the compatibility factor of the liveCD a lot. My kids can now go play those flash-based games on internet kid sites. I'm looking at java support, too, but it's huge.
