Flash plugin for fedora

Adobe has a repository to install the flash plugin using yum. Install the repository:

rpm -ivh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-\
release/adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch.rpm

Import the key:

rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux

yum the software:

yum install flash-plugin libflashsupport

Now you would ask me why install libflashsupport. If you don’t you will have no sound when playing Flash in your web browser.

Update: You no longer need to install libflashsupport.

PS: For Newbies please make sure you are executing these commands as a root user, otherwise it will not work
