Working now.

I installed flashplayer 10.1rc6.  Moved libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/flash-
plugin.  Symlinked to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.  Ran (as root)  mozilla-
plugin-config -i -v.
visit 
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
seems to be working under google chrome 6.0.408.1
BTW, my system is x86-64.

Neal,

Thanks much.  I used your method and firefox worked for me too.  I even
downloaded the browser, chrome, and it worked as well.

Thanks much for your help.  I hope this thread saves a lot of time for
others!!!!

Greg
