-Yes. To get Flash working, you need a 32bit browser like -mozilla-firefox-bin or opera because Macromedia doesn't provide a -64bit version. After emerging the -bin package of your favorite browser, -install Flash by doing emerge netscape-flash. +Yes. Even though Macromedia doesn't provide a 64-bit version of Flash, there are +a couple ways to get Flash working. +

+ +

+First, you can use a 32-bit browser like mozilla-firefox-bin or +opera with the 32-bit Flash. After emerging the -bin package of your +favorite browser, install Flash by doing emerge netscape-flash. +

+ +

+Second, you can use a 64-bit browser such as mozilla-firefox with the +32-bit Flash plugin by emerging nspluginwrapper, a which lets you load +32-bit plugins on 64-bit browsers. Install your browser, netscape-flash, +and then nspluginwrapper. The wrapper will automatically detect and setup +Flash for your browser.
