There is also a work around that I came across that will work with some
sites that request Flash 9.
From
http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/08/14/flash-9-for-xubuntu/
1) Make a back-up of the file ~/.mozilla/firefox/pluginreg.dat:
cp ~/.mozilla/firefox/pluginreg.dat ~/.mozilla/firefox/pluginreg.dat.bak
2) Edit that file:
nano ~/.mozilla/firefox/pluginreg.dat
3) Replace the lines that say
Shockwave Flash 7.0 r63:$
to
Shockwave Flash 9.0 r63:$
Thanks for the trick. The bothersome site that distracted the kids to
use Linux was the disneychannel.com site. The site came up with the
edited file. Firefox worked somewhat but needed the old killall -9
firefox-bin after some clicking. What features they use that require
Flash 9 will always be a mystery to me.
Anyway, I'm assamed to inform a kid that Windows can go to this site but
Linux cannot. Hopefully a genuine Flash 9 version hits Linux soon. I
don't want the kids corrupted into using windows.
