It would help if you said just what file you are
talking about. Several were mentioned in my
reply.

I was referring to the immediately preceding reference,
namely
~/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxxxx.default dir in the pluginreg.dat
file

I didn't say to edit it. I said that if your setup
was correct that there should be a reference to libflashplayer.so in it.
Was there a reference?

I didn't say anything about editing it.

I've already indicated that there wasn't a reference
(a) by saying the file was virtually empty
(b) by posting the content of the file.

Well, I don't have your original post any more but if
you copied the libflashplayer.so to the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins dir and

That doesn't work. Can you confirm that you are using Firefox 3.5.3 and
the latest 64bit flash player?

I downloaded
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
This compressed tar file contains only libflashplayer.so and there do not
seem to be any accompanying documents, nor any on the download page. The
page says that "The following downloads will install Flash Player 10
prerelease" but "install" isn't quite the term I would use - untarring it
just results in a single file in whatever is the current directory. Hence
my question about where I should copy it.
