You can enjoy games and anim on a Linux computer, so first download the player from macromedia web site :
http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/...ad/alternates/ Look for Linux Mozilla Browser compatible player i.e. Flash Player 7 for Mozilla 1.2 and Click the "Download Now" button. A dialog box will appear asking you where to save the Installer. Save the Installer to your desktop or home directory. Next you need to Unpackage the file using following command: Code:
cp install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz /tmp cd /tmp tar -zxvf install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz Code:
cd install_flash_player_7_linux/ Now type command ./flashplayer-installer to run the installer and just follow information on screen. Code:
./flashplayer-installer Then simply copy files to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory: Code:
cp libflashplayer.so flashplayer.xpt /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
