Adobe Flash for 64-bit Linux

Adobe Labs had the 64 bit Firefox plugin, but then removed it from their site. Iit still available as a direct download from Macromedia, and is mirrored on egeland.net here.

The following script will download and install flash system-wide in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins:

wget -q http://egeland.net/pub/libflashplayer-10.0.45.2.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz -O - \
  | tar -C /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins -xzf - 
If Open Sound System (OSS) is being used, then the OSS flash support libraries should be compiled and installed:

apt-get -qq install gcc-multilib && \
mkdir -p /tmp/oss_source && \
wget -q http://www.4front-tech.com/release/oss-linux-v4.2-2003-x86_64.tar.bz2 -O - \
  | tar -C /tmp/oss_source -xjf - && \
cd /tmp/oss_source/usr/lib/oss/lib &&\
cc -shared -fPIC -O2 -Wall flashsupport.c -o /usr/lib/libflashsupport.so
