*Solved*Flash Plugin in 64 bit?

Hi everyone, I just installed Salix OS Xfce 64bit and all is going great, exept for the lack of Flash. Now I know that Adobe does not support 64 bit, but I'm pretty sure that you can install a 32 bit browser, and then the 32 bit Plugin. Could someone tell me how to mod this? Thanks, and sorry if I'm missing something obvious.

Please read through the "Flash in 64-bit" thread in the announcements section.

If you really want to do what you're describing, google for "slackware multilib". I wouldn't.

I did read the Flash in 64 bit announcement. The problem is that I prefer to play a flash game or two on Kongregate once in a while, and gnash just gives me a black box instead. I'll take a look at that link.

I didn't tell you to read the announcement. I told you to read through the announcement thread. All of it.

That's why I've said: "there is a package available" :lol:
