VIAAS Support

How do I get VIASS to work on LInux?

The following steps have been tested on an Ubuntu 9.04 running on an AMD64 system and using Firefox browser to access the VIAAS service.

Download Adobe Flash Player 10 for Ubuntu on amd64 from

http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html

Unpackage downloaded package to some temporary location.

$ tar xvzf libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz

Check that .mozilla/plugins dir exists in your $HOME directory. If not, create it.

$ mkdir -p .mozilla/plugins

Move the extracted file to the plugins directory.

$ mv libflashplayer.so .mozilla/plugins

Restart firefox. Visit about:plugins in browser and check that it is enabled.
