If you downloaded Flash from adobe directly, you need to also have the libmlib.so.2 library installed. It is delivered with the medialib package.

Hopefully someone can respond to the /extra repo issue. -- Alan On 02/26/10 07:32 AM, Matthew Nawrocki wrote: > Hi... > > I have copied the libflashplayer.so file into both the > /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ and ~/.mozilla/plugins/ directories and nothing > works.
