See the thread here (http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1495&sid=7904cb496c1f85e737f1b43ab9b1f856). There are also a few other scripts for realplayer, f-prot, etc.. in the Ideas section also.

You should be able to install it via apt-get. If you do an "apt-get update", and then "apt-cache search flash" you should see "flashplayer-mozilla" at the bottom of the list. To install it enter "apt-get install flashplayer-mozilla".

You also might want to install the Mplayer-Plugin and a few of the utilities. To do this you must first add a few apt sources. Login as root, or open /etc/apt/sources.list . Go to the bottom of the document and copy-paste these lines.

#Mplayer
deb http://marillat.free.fr/ unstable main
deb-src http://perso.wanadoo.fr/debian/ unstable main

Save and close the file. Then run apt-get update. Then issue the following command, which is probably overkill but I tried to cover all bases.

apt-get install qt6codecs libquicktime1 quicktime-utils quicktime-x11utils xawtv-plugin-qt xmovie mplayer-mozilla

After the apps install edit /etc/mplayer/mplayerplug-in.conf and change noembed=0 .
