yum, whatever that is
That's the CentOS front end to it's rpm system; comparable to zypper, I believe.
It's CentOS because CentOS is a derivative of RedHat/Fedora, originator of Yum. Yum & Zypper are not only front ends to RPM, as RPM can't fetch RPMs or manage repos, but also comprehensive package management, which RPM alone could never be. Anything Yum can install, Zypper can too, as long as it's somewhere Zypper can find.
Um, I /did/ write "comparable to", didn't I? And there is no single definition of "front end"... apt, smart, yum, zypper... even YaST qualify, don't they? In any case, I was only *briefly* responding to the OP's "whatever that is" comment. I omitted lots of things so as not to steer the discussion off-topic.
in an attempt to get it back on-topic i'll mention another thing i tried which failed to get it working: i downloaded the rpm and ran rpm -i <module>, moving the module around until rpm could find it -- but still all embedded flash content gives the same "you need to install a flash player" message -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
