Flash player on Fedora 9 x86_64
May 13th, 2008
I installed Fedora 9 on my x86_64 box today, and one of the early tasks was to get Adobe's flash player working. Unfortunately it didn't work out of the box, but once I understood what went wrong the fix was easy:
yum -y install nspluginwrapper.i386 libflashsupport.i386
(this assumes that you have installed the flash with the yum method described at Adobe's site)
I hope that our friends at Adobe sorts this out to be a bit more user friendly in the future, perhaps by licensing their player in a Fedora compatible way so that it can be a part of the distribution.
