    Exclamation HOW TO: install flash 9 from adobe/macromedia

    download flash from the adobe site.
    go to places>computer once there click the pencil and paper icon so it displays a text entry bar
    in that area type "~/.mozilla/plugins" when you are there drag the files "flashplayer.xpt" and "libflashplayer.so" to that folder.
    go to the site where you want to run flash and try it.
    have fun



    NOTE: you can download flash 9 at this link
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get...9_linux.tar.gz
    open it with archive manager and choose extract.
    extract it to desktop and delete the original file
    the files i described above will be found in the folder that you just made

    another way to do it is to go to youtube and click a video and a yellow bar appears. click the button "install missing plugins"
    press accept (or read it if u want i dont care but if u get in trouble for incorrect use its not my fault)
    hit continue
    [it downloads and installs]
    hit finish
    the page will refresh and flash is installed

    If someone tells you do do a command with rm in it, don't do it, it will delete things.
