Welcome to LinuxForums. I can see you're new so I'll give you a bit of advice: the mods don't like it when you post the same problem more than once. Chances are your problem will get solved no matter how many times you post it.

Just download Flash Player 9 beta 2 from Adobe Labs (choose Download Installer for Linux).
Uncompress the file :
Then copy libflashplayer.so to the ~/.mozilla/plugins/ directory :Code:tar zxf FP9_plugin_beta_112006.tar.gz
If ~/.mozilla/plugins/ doesn't exist, just create it :Code:cp FP9_plugin_beta_112006/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/
There are many threads about this on the forum, so you can search a bit if you want more details.Code:mkdir -p ~/.mozilla/plugins/
