Here is an extract (hopefully containing enough) of what I tried. root@Tux-II:/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree# update-flashplugin-nonfree --status Flash Player version installed on this system : 11.2.202.350 Flash Player version available on upstream site: 11.2.202.350 update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for flash-mozilla.so root@Tux-II:/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree# cd /home/lisi/.mozilla/plugins/ root@Tux-II:/home/lisi/.mozilla/plugins# ls libflashplayer.so root@Tux-II:/home/lisi/.mozilla/plugins# update-flashplugin-nonfree --status Flash Player version installed on this system : 11.2.202.350 Flash Player version available on upstream site: 11.2.202.350 update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for flash-mozilla.so root@Tux-II:/home/lisi/.mozilla/plugins# rm libflashplayer.so root@Tux-II:/home/lisi/.mozilla/plugins# cp /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so /home/lisi/.mozilla/plugins/ root@Tux-II:/home/lisi/.mozilla/plugins# But I am still getting, as I did in the first place, Installed plugins Find updates for installed plugins at mozilla.com/plugincheck Shockwave Flash File: libflashplayer.so Path: /home/lisi/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so Version: 11,2,202,346 State: Enabled Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202 As a result of a mistake I made (I mv-ed libflashplayer from :/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree to /home/lisi/.mozilla/plugins/ so had to cp it back again) I can see that it is indeed the correct libflashplayer.so, since the main system still thinks that it has got the correct version. Why does Iceweasel not agree, and how do I persuade it to do so? The Mozilla site just says to do exactly what I have done. :-( Lisi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
