Firefox Flash Plugin not working on Linux Mint

My Flash plugin just won't work for Firefox on Linux Mint.

I am running Linux Mint 14 Nadia 64bit.

  • Downloaded firefox-27.0.1.tar.bz2
  • Extracted it
  • Ran ./firefox it works fine
  • Downloaded install_flash_player_11_linux.x86_64.tar.gz
  • Extracted it
  • Copied the plugin: cp libflashplayer.so /home/gary/.mozilla/plugins/
  • Copied the Flash Player Local Settings configurations: sudo cp -r usr/* /usr
  • Generated dependency lists for Flash Player: ldd /home/gary/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

Plugin still doesn't work.

Any help would be appreciated.

start with a command in terminal

sudo apt-get alien - it is a converter worth using .

For rpm to deb use code sudo alien <file-name>.rpm

for tar.gz use code sudo alien -k <file-name>.tar.gz

for tar.bz2 use code sudo alien -d <file-name>.tar.bz2

for tgz use code sudo alien --to-deb ~/<file-name>.tgz

good luck .

~ $sudo alien -d firefox-27.0.1.tar.bz2

wait

double click new deb file

Silverlight

And download chrome this plugin rocks it will enable flash 15 ...

sudo apt-get install mint-flashplugin

This works from terminal.
