Flash 7 for Linux!
Yay! Macromedia released Flash 7 for Linux. It’s suspossed to be faster with a few new features. You can download it from http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash.
Installation was pretty easy. I couldn’t get it to install for Mozilla…I don’t know why. I have three mozilla-* directories in my /usr/lib folder, so that could of been the issue. I specified /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox and it installed and ran fine. Then I told Konqueror (my default/favorite browser) to look in the /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox directory for plugins, and scanned. Flash 7 showed up! If you want to test your new Flash capibility, then try http://www.foxone.fr/intro.swf (Slashdotted probably…)
Also, this comment on Slashdot really caught my eye: http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=109149&cid=9275274
Anyways, enjoy!
