There's a plethora of different instructions on the web, we don't know which ones you've followed. But I've rarely ever got that (*) sort of thing to work on any browser, on any OS. It nearly always fails in one way or another: It goes through the motions, but won't start installing, or whatever's installed doesn't work. * Getting Flash to install from a webpage that says I need to add a plug-in, and it tries to arrange it. What has worked just about flawlessly for me, is to install the Adobe repo, go to <http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/> pick the YUM for Linux option, download and install it. Then, in the command line, as root, do: yum install flash-plugin libflashsupport Afterwards, any time you do a yum update, or use the updating graphical doodah that notifies you from the taskbar panel, it's self maintaining. I'd be tempted to remove all flash software you've installed, then try installing it the way I've outlined above. Do the removal properly, if it's been RPM installed, then RPM erase it. Don't just delete the files, or move them about. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.26.6-79.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
