Sorry to hear that you have issues but I think it's fine to say that it works out of the box for the majority of the users. What doesn't work in every case is to install the Adobe RPM since it may use wrong file locations. The flash-player RPM in the non-oss repo is always installed correctly and since nspluginwrapper is available it also works in 64bit environments (not completely stable though but at least usable for me and apparently others).
for what it's worth, i just installed the 64-bit flash plugin into SLES 11, works fine. don't bother with packages -- grab the tarball from here: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html open it up, and copy the single library file into /usr/lib64/browser-plugins/. kill all your running firefox instances, start again. to verify, browse to "about:plugins" and the flash plugin should be listed. again, the above is for 64-bit. no need for ndiswrapper. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
