How to upgrade the flash player for LDOCE5 in Ubuntu 9.04?
After install LDOCE5, in the LDOCE5 folder there is a folder named "plugins".
I had tried to replace the old version of "libflashplayer.so" in the plugin folder.
But after that the New version, 10.0.32.18, of Adobe Flash Player (libflashplayer.so) didn't work with LDOCE5 well.
Do you know how to upgrade the flash player for LDOCE5 in Ubuntu 9.04 in the best way?
Thanks a lot.
Upgrading adobe flash player
Upgrading adobe flash player is possible, but that would need some if not lots of hacks to modify flash related configuration files. On the other hand, popup-mode dictionary doesn't work on a native Linux installation( No QuickFind counterpart in Linux ). It might be better to switch to WINE for the sort of thing you like.
THANK YOU

i have ubuntu 8.10, what can i do to have it work?
The files could have been loaded as binary files
I experimented this, but couldn't determine the cause. Some image readers load the sh files as binaries. Try using another image reader.
It also works in ubuntu 8.10
Please try to install again. Make sure you have installed "libgtk1.2".
