You know if you're on root if next to your command line you see this number sign: #
If you have: $, then that is not root.
I don't know what distro of linux you have so here's three commands you can use (pulled from NAQ's Seedbox Guide
Fedora Core 4:
Code:
# yum --enablerepo=flash install flash-plugin
Fedora Core 5/6/7/8 & CentOS:
Code:
# yum install flash-plugin
Ubuntu:
Code:
# apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
Debian:
Optional configuration for Debian (will need it if you want Flash):
We are gonna assume you are running Debian 4.0 (Etch), we can install the "backports" repository which will have more updated softwares than the stable tree.
Edit the sources.list file:
Code:
# nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Insert the following line to the end:
Code:
deb http://www.backports.org/debian etch-backports main contrib non-free
Save and exit (Ctrl + X)
Get the verification key:
Code:
# wget -O - http://backports.org/debian/archive.key | apt-key add -
Run update:
# apt-get update
Then:
Code:
# apt-get -t etch-backports install flashplugin-nonfree
