Anyone got flash player working?

[kanazky]

Hey, has anyone had success with the flash player?

[Demz]

have you tried install Flash 10? http://macromedia.mplug.org/

[kanazky]

Yes but it still says I need it :D

[JoshuaK]

install libflash support
su -
yum install libflashsupport

[wvn]

install libflash support
su -
yum install libflashsupport

or dnmouse's script

[wtogami]

No. You should remove libflashsupport if you using Flash 10. It does not need libflashsupport for sound on Fedora. libflashsupport might even cause crashes.

Flash on F10 will work without any sound. It will also lock up firefox. I can play youtube videos but No sound. If I play a music swf then the system locks up. Tried deleting pulse audio stuff and still same problem. Guess that F10 (rawhide) still isn't flash friendly:(

:)UPDATE..:)
I loaded the livna-development repo and then installed mplayer and mplayer-gui. updated to flash 10. then un installed all pulse audio stuff and reinstalled it. Did a reboot and now it works without any lockups. Go figure.. Still loving F10

Having no luck myself! Fresh Install of F10B2 and Flash 10. Videos usually play for 2-3 seconds before turning to a white screen or just freezing the video. I followed wtogami's how-to, which worked perfectly in F9 BTW.

Out of curiosity how do you add the livna-development repo, forgive my noobness at using fedora development releases.

OK.. In the dir

etc/yum.repso.d

you make a text file called livna-devel.repo

in that file you cut and past the following

I did this, but it still says that I need to install flash player in youtube. Is there anyway I can get swfdec to run in it?

[bob]

This is another way that works for the Beta: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=201257

[TehLieutenant]

It still says that I do not have the plug in installed

[bob]

If it's not mozilla/firefox, you'll probably have to do a symlink to the application. Give us some specifics on where the plugin should be installed. (Search the Forum for 'symlink' and you'll probably find some details).
