install flash player 10 into centos

 

The fix is easier then you think. Everything I’ve posted below was tested on a CentOS 5.2 x64 Gnome environment. Let’s fix that Flash Player to run on 64 bits, shall we?

 

1. Start by installing those libraries (.i386 and .x86_64):
# yum install curl compat-libstdc++-33 glibc nspluginwrapper

2. Once done with the kitchen work, it is time to install the Flash Player RPM.
# rpm -ivh /tmp/flash-plugin-10.0.12.36-release.i386.rpm

3. Close all Firefox windows and open a new one. In the address bar, type:
about:plugins

You should see there the Flash Player and NPAPI wrapper. Now, go watch some movies on YouTube. Was that hard? There you have it, Flash Player with Firefox x64.
