I would like to install Flash player for Firefox on Linux.
I downloaded the .tar.gz, and there are some compiled shared libraries. I am not sure how to make them work, and I am looking for a hint.
I tried to change LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the folder where those libraries are, but I had no luck. Any suggestions?

Put the libflashplayer.so file in your Mozilla plugins directory (usually /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins or some variant thereof).
