[Cialug] 64bit flashplayer+64bit debian

[Barry Von Ahsen]

I've had moderate success moving it to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/, but 
then you've got to mess with the /etc/alternatives setup

I've had the best success dropping it in ~/.mozilla/plugins/ since 
there's only one user on my multi-user systems :)


this was for 32bit flash, but as long as the 64 is really supported, it 
should be the same - I say this because my first attempt at 64 bit flash 
was the first really buggy v10 release that didn't work at all, and I 
had to use mozwrapper for the 32bit version.  I'd hope it works better now
