software installation - I need help Installing a tar.gz file


I've got Flash 11.2 beta in a tar.gz file. I'm new to Linux and I don't know what I'm doing. How can I install it?



Remove the old flash (if necessary)


sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-installer

Extract the contents


tar xvf flashplayer11-2_p3_install_lin_32_122011.tar.gz

Copy the library


sudo cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/

Restart firefox
