Flash Player 11 under Debian Lenny
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
I'm still using Debian Lenny, and would like to use Flash Player 11
under my Iceweasel (aka Firefox). I've downloaded the necessary file
from
<http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/> (running 32 bits),
three times because I tried the three proposed alternatives.
When necessary, I put libflashplayer.so under
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.
Each time, the plugin is correctly detected by Iceweasel, as can be
seen at Tools > Add-ons > Plugins (`Shockwave Flash 11.1 r102').
However, when I try to load a webpage containing a flash animation,
nothing loads, and it looks like I've got no Flash.
Consequently, I'm assuming Flash Player 11 (the v10 works like a charm
here) needs other packages, maybe more recent versions than the ones I
have.
Could someone provide more info on this? I need to install the v11
because many websites I'm regularly visiting (like Dailymotion) do not
accept playing with a v10 Flash player (`You need to install Flash
Player 11 [...].').
Note that I tried putting the .so file under ~/.mozilla/plugins/ but
it systematically crashes Iceweasel.
Thanks.
All the best,
