Enable Flash Player 64 bit on Chromium ( Debian 64 bit )

I had flash correctly installed and working on all browsers but Chromium-browser :< I had to enable the plugin by going to:

chrome://plugins

(put this address on your chromium address bar and press Enter)

It is listed as Shockwave Flash, Enable it!

Have fun, flash on chromium browser too :P

Flash Player on Debian Squeeze 64 bit

Even by following the official debian wiki about Flash Player, I wasn't able to see youtube videos on my Debian Squeeze.

I had to download a particular package made for the 64 bit version of Linux distributions. It seems to be a beta version, but it works fine (at least for me, and yes... still high cpu usage .-. Flash keeps sucking on linux).

Here you can find the tar.gz file: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer11.html

Just download the 64 bit version and extract libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib64/

Long story short:

wget http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplatformruntimes/flashplayer11/flashplayer11_b2_install_lin_64_080811.tar.gz

tar -zxvf flashplayer11_b2_install_lin_64_080811.tar.gz libflashplayer.so

mv libflashplayer.so /usr/lib64/

Done :D Have fun!

Skype su Debian Squeeze 64 bit

Avete appena installato Debian (nel mio caso Debian 6.0 Squeeze 64 bit) e non riuscite a far andare Skype (nemmeno la static)?

Io ho ricevuto questo errore:

./skype: error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Per risolvere ho dovuto installare il pacchetto ia32-libs.

Poi ho ricevuto quest'altro splendido errore:

./skype: error while loading shared libraries: libgthread-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Mancava ancora ia32-libs-gtk.

Insomma... riassumiamo:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs ia32-libs-gtk

Buona conversazione :D
