OK, should be the first. Now- can you answer the rest of these?
Up.. we're addressing an sfs Opera.. Perhaps sites read flashplayer from /initrd/pup_rw/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/?
You could tell if you had different versions in each, then see what Adobes`site says..
Then again- you could temporarily yank the file..

I have to quit for tonight.

In order for the flashplayer plugin to work with Opera it requires certain Mozilla libraries:
libnspr4.so
libnss3.so
libnssutil3.so
libplc4.so
libplds4.so
libsmime3.so
libsll3.so
Opera looks for these libraries in /usr/lib but in Racy, Wary, etc these are located in /usr/lib/seamonkey. Therefore, it is necessary to have symlinks in /usr/lib pointing to these libraries in /usr/lib/seamonkey.
The current version of Opera is 12.12 but 12.13 will be out soon.

[b]Classic Opera 12.16 browser SFS package[/b] for Precise, Slacko, Racy, Wary, Lucid, etc available[url=http://terryphillips.org.uk/operasfs.htm]here[/url] :)
OK, now I'm curious. Hey Sheldon, dump this command when you get a chance..
Though I'm not certain which one it's looking at. Guessing the first..
Otherwise..
Do either of these report any *not founds*?
Ah- "about:plugins" says it's the first.
Code: Select all
ldd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
Otherwise..
Code: Select all
ldd /initrd/pup_rw/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

Semme PMed me a link to a file at Adobe's site, will try that.

Nope, there weren't any *not founds* from executing the first command line.Semme wrote:OK, now I'm curious. Hey Sheldon, dump this command when you get a chance..Though I'm not certain which one it's looking at. Guessing the first..Code: Select all

As of last night, and now, I'm not sure what flashplayer and associated stuff is installed. At least the .so is
-rw-rw-r-- 1 501 guest 12537796 2011-06-21 19:26 /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
I will go get the file you indicated in your PM.
Good. After the dwnld, extract ONLY the top listed file >> libflashplayer.so.
When it asks to where, you point it towards /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.. effectively overwriting the old, or, non-working one.
Then go here (JS enabled) and report back the version- hopefully working.
Then we'll hook you up with Terrys`12.12 build..

flashplayer stuff
I wanted to do that after booting with a fresh savefile.Semme wrote:Good. After the dwnld, extract ONLY the top listed file >> libflashplayer.so.

But had a lot of trouble doing the latter..
Eventually did boot with a fresh savefile.
Set the opera sfs to be loaded at boot.
Extracted the libflashplayer.so as you said.
It shows up in Opera's plugins
(I have to shut down Opera briefly - will edit soon)
The Adobe link says 10.3.183.50
but with commas rather than periods.
I'll try a video .. Yes, it works!
MANY THANKS!

Looks like root is not the owner of your flash player lib. It may not stop it from working but might be an idea to "chown root:root libflashplayer.so" and check any of the other files that were installed with it.sheldonisaac wrote: At least the .so is

Hello Semme,
As you say it does still run OK. All I can tell you is that if you download the Flash Player files from Adobe (not sure what happens if you use Get Flash) they come through as something like "Owner, Group : 501, guest" if you look at Properties.
What I do is assemble the files I want including the preferences utility, desktop file and icon(s) in a directory eg "flashplayer11-11.2.202.261" and then just
chown -R root:root flashplayer11-11.2.202.261
so that all the files to be installed (manually or via a .pet) are then owned by root.
The permissions of libflashplayer.so downloaded from Adobe seem to be Owner=rw Group=rw World=r
The ldd command that you mentioned produces a warning that execute permission is not set so I have set those but I really don't know if any execute permissions are needed or advisable with this file or other shared libs. Most other shared libs seem to have them set for Owner, Group and World.
