I can't get the flash player plugin to work using nspluginwrapper. I
have checked with google and I can't find anyone else who has had this
problem. At least if they used the latest version of nspluginwrapper
and installed it correctly.
The details:
- kernel 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6 x86_64
- firefox 1.5.0.8, 64 bit
- nspluginwrapper 0.9.90.4
- flash player version 7.0.68.0
Install flash plugin:
> nspluginwrapper -i /tmp/32bit/libflashplayer.so
> nspluginwrapper -l
/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
Original plugin: /tmp/32bit/libflashplayer.so
Wrapper version string: 0.9.90.4
> ls /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins
mplayerplug-in-dvx.so mplayerplug-in-rm.so mplayerplug-in-wmp.so
npwrapper.nppdf.so mplayerplug-in-qt.so mplayerplug-in.so
npwrapper.libflashplayer.so npwrapper.so
But about:plugins doesn't show the flash player as a plugin and it
won't work (obviously).
As a test, I installed the adobe acrobat plugin and it works just fine.
Any ideas?
