FlashPlayer on 64-bit Slackware-based distros

As everyone knows, installing Flash Player on 64-bit Linux distribuion isn't just dead easy as the browser-based installer mostly won't work, with Slackware-based ones: more pain.

Although it could be DAMN simple:
1. Get Square, 64-bit release for libflashplayer
1.5. Extract the archive, you'll get libflashplayer.so
2. Copy libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins
3. Make a copy also in ~/.mozilla/plugins, a symbolic link will do


Hope it works!

Salix 64-bit

I've recently had Zenwalk replaced on my laptop, I'm now employing Salix OS 64-bit. The reason behind the migration, despite the bleeding new version of Zenwalk 7.0, I'm longing for 64-bit operating system and want to keep the Slackware flavor in it, there comes Salix.

I simply mix up packages from Salix64 (13.1.2)'s installation with ones from Slackware64 13.1. Having Salix as the base is nice, it's slimmer than standard Zenwalk or Slackware (by default).

Eh, gotta compile the kernel--the preinstalled kernel is quite old: 2.6.33.4. It's the same version I had with Zenwalk for over almost a year. :)
