Adobe’s newly released 64bit flash plugin for Firefox running on GNU+Linux makes installation on 64-bit operating systems a walk in the park ( like I said – 4 easy steps )

  1. Download the plugin from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_64bit.html . Direct download link
  2. Extract libflashplayer.so from the downloaded file
  3. copy libflashplayer.so to /home/<username>/.mozilla/plugins/
  4. restart Firefox !

    Google Chrome too takes its plugins from the .mozilla/plugins dir, so essentially this also works for Google Chrome[ tested by me :) ], and to make it system-wide, put it in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/
