OK. Thanks for all the input about this. I need to bear the
security aspect in mind. Possibly checking with Smart
Package Manager for any further security patches for the
10.3 version.
Does anybody have the latest flash plugin 11.2. working on
Centos 5.7 32 bit please?
Also I see that the Adobe flash plugin is no longer being
developed for Linux, and 11.2 is only available for the next
5 years with security patches added.
Is there not a free alternative to Adobe's flash plugin
please?
Kind Regards,
Keith
