    Flash for the 64bit user

    I know this question may be redundant but I thought I would throw it out there in hopes someone might have an answer. Would it be possible to use flash on a 64bit system?

    I have a 64-bit system and I can see flash animations online (that's what you mean?).

    Where did you find your flash player? I installed SuSE 10.1 x86-64 onto my system.
    When I go to install Flash from the Adobe web site http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/downl...ShockwaveFlash

    Try and do an auto install and it does not work so I went ahead and and tried to manually install and it comes back at me with the error message:

    ERROR: Your architecture, \'x86_64\', is not supported by the
    Macromedia Flash Player installer.


    Where did you find your version of flash?

    I didn't use the installer. I went here:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer9.html
    untarred the file that I downloaded and then inserted the libflashplugin* (or whatever it's called) in .mozilla/firefox/plugins or alternately /usr/share/firefox/plugins.

    Something like that.
