Installing 64bit flash in 9.10 64bit

[GuitarJim1987]

Hi everyone

I am having trouble installing the 64bit version of flash in 9.10 64 bit. I have been following the instructions here (http://profarius.com/content/64bit-java-flash-deathroll) however I'm stuck at the last little bit:

## As User
# Unpack flash
tar zxf libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
# Create plugins directory if it doesn't exist
mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins
# Move flash to plugins directory
mv libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/

When I type those commands the terminal returns an error stating it couldn't find the file which is obvious and if I try to copy straight into the plugins folder it won't let me due to root privileges required.

I have the libflashplayer.so in the 'downloads' folder and I need to move it to /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins. Can anybody tell me how to do so please?

Many thanks.

If you have it already unpacked (if it's still packed as .tar.gz right-click, open with archive manager, and extract), just copy it in your home folder in .mozilla/plugins. There should be no permission errors, you are copying into your home folder, not in /usr.
Note: .mozilla is hidden folder, when you open your home folder press Ctrl + H to show hidden folders. Do the same to hide them again.

There was an update for 64 bit released on 8th Dec.

(That has instructions for both 32 & 64 Bit)
