I'm assuming your using some variant on *buntu.. Correct? Regardless, I think most distro's now use a late enough version of Chromium that it no longer works with Adobe flash (at least not without some serious effort). You would be better off going to www.google.com/chrome and download the real package and install it. It has flash included and runs much better anyway... It's just easier. Last time I tried to make default Chromium use a regular version of adobe flash I spent an hour beating my head against the wall then installed normal Chrome from Google and everything works great. If you really want to know.... /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins is where your libflash... should go. Nathan I need to download adobe flash and I opted for the tar file rather than the apt file. The instructions say (in part): o Copy libflashplayer.so to the appropriate browser plugins directory. At the prompt type: + cp libflashlayer.so o Copy the Flash Player Local Settings configurations files to the /usr directory. At the prompt type: + sudo cp -r usr/* /usr My questions are: what is the appropriate directory for chromium? where are the configuration files? I understand from the first '+' that the text after the '+' that this is what you are supposed to type in. I can't quite grasp what the second command is. Oh.... I understand. usr is a directory in the tar package. They just want to copy the contents of it to /usr . They mention that this package is for firefox.... will that prove difficult? Why didn't I have problems like this last time? Thanks for any help you can give. :-)~MIKE~(-:
