GetFlash not working
Hi!
I'm trying out the ubuntu compatible version.
When starting Internet->GetFLash Install Flashplayer it says "Unable to contact the server, please check your internet connection". Is the server down? Internet is working just fine. Writing this in Opera on it right now.

Adobe has changed the URLs to download the Flash updates, which is why GetFlash returns that error.
I don't know about Ubuntu-compatible versions, but the original has been updated to handle the issue: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=74491 _________________ [ Puppy 4.3.1 JP, Frugal install | 1GB RAM | 1.3GB swap ] * My Pidgin Builds for Puppy 4.3.1

I typically just follow the instructions here, and do the manual upgrade:
Basically, just unpack the tar, and drag libflashplayer.so to the folder /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ (that should fix it). _________________ Wellminded Search Add swapfile
