Flash

From MEPIS Documentation Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Adobe Flash is a multimedia platform that is a popular means of adding animation and interactivity to web pages. It is a plugin for the web browser and is installed by default in MEPIS.

Test which version you have installed at: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

The plugin flashplugin-nonfree is installed by default, but is available for reinstallation from the MEPIS repository via Synaptic. It can also be installed directly from Adobe (http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/) or from the debian-multimedia repository as the flashplayer-mozilla package which may be a newer version than the flashplugin-nonfree.

[edit]

Fix for 64 bit flash

If you upgraded MEPIS 8 and lost flash capabilities try this fix: 

su -c 'update-alternatives --auto flash-mozilla.so'
