Well I decided to install linux-flashplugin7 and I followed the instructions inside linuxpluginwrapper (install a patch) and I got an error: # patch < patch-rtld.c Hmm... Looks like a unified diff to me... The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |--- libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.c.orig Fri Sep 24 08:04:52 2004 |+++ libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.c Sun Oct 17 03:37:44 2004 -------------------------- Patching file libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.c using Plan A... Hunk #1 failed at 129. Hunk #2 failed at 178. Hunk #3 failed at 1738. 3 out of 3 hunks failed--saving rejects to libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.c.rej done Any ideas? p.s. Why is installing Flash so hard? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
