Ok. I tried installing from the link given in the Firefox page of the OLPC wiki ( <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Firefox" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Firefox</a> ) . It works fine if I install it from a .tar.gz file but doesn't if it is installed from a .rpm file? Any ideas?<br>

Subject: Flash plugin not recognised by Firefox on the OLPC<br>To: OLPC Devel <<a href="mailto:Devel@lists.laptop.org" target="_blank">Devel@lists.laptop.org</a>><br><br><br>Hi,<br><br> I installed Firefox on my OLPC from the All activities page. And then installed flash from the following link <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Adobe_Flash#Installation" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Adobe_Flash#Installation</a> . I don't have a Wi-Fi router so I downloaded the .xo and rpm on my windows machine and then transferred them over to the OLPC and installed them. I wanted to view some flash content that I had so when I opened them in Firefox I got a message saying Flash Player is not installed. <br>
<br> To double check I typed rpm -qa at the terminal and it showed that Flash has been installed. The flash content works fine on the Browse activity but not in flash. I tried uninstalling GNASH with the same result.<br>
<br> I know that the flash content works fine with firefox because it works fine with firefox on my linux machine. So can any body tell me what else the problem might be?<br><br>Thanks<br>jbsp72<br>
