Can't even install flash player :-(

[joshribakoff]

I tried the "rpm", the "yum", and the "tar.gz" from the adobe site.

Both rpms installed fine but I still can't view flash content in Firefox (missing plugin)

The .tar.gz contained a .so file, but the installation instructions for the flash player said I should see an installer file in the .tar.gz, but I do not.

I can't believe I can't even get flash player working

Their instructions said to check under "Help > About Plugins" but obviously Firefox does not and has never had such an option. I hate Adobe.

For the "about plugins" bit, type this into the url bar

about:plugins

For the .so file from the tar.gz, you should just be able to put this in the directory ~/.mozilla/plugins.

Were these the instructions you followed for getting flash using yum?
