When there is no flash plug-in during browsing, download one from the official website:

Http://get.adobe.com/cn/flashplayer/

Download: install_flash_player_11_linux.i386.tar.gz


After decompressing this package, you can see that you want to copy the library of the decompressed plug-in to the directory of the browser plug-in, and copy the files under usr to the/usr directory of the system. The original file is as follows:
O Copy libflashplayer. so to the appropriate browser plugins directory. At the prompt type:
+ Cp libflashlayer. so <BrowserPluginsLocation>
O Copy the Flash Player Local Settings configurations files to the/usr directory. At the prompt type:
+ Sudo cp-r usr/*/usr

So now the question is how to find the directory where the browser (firefox) stores the plug-in?

If the company of firefox is mozzilla, the Directory of the library should be:
/Usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/

Copy libflashlayer. so to/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins /,
Copy the usr files to the usr directory of the system;

Restart firefox to use the flash plug-in.
