Hi, i am using debian linux system and by default its browser is iceweasel which works very well except that it doesn't have a flash player plugin.

i've tried every means but can't solve it.

1. apt-get update apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree it said no this candidate.

can you give me a source to download? i use your default source.

2. download from adobe.com/flash site. download and unzip the folder and cp the libflashplayer.so to mozilla/plugins and lib/iceweasel, restart iceweasel, still doesn't work.

can you help solve it?or let me know where can i find the answers. i've try baidu and cubietech forum. no answer. they told me check https://wiki.debian.org/FlashPlayer/ which doesn't include the correct answer.

i know its core is firefox. i am writing to you to check if you could help solve it. thanks.

thanks, Steve

We don't provide iceweasel support here. However, try installing the latest version of Firefox and we'd love to help. Install Firefox on Linux

What are you running this Iceweasel on? as it has armv7 in useragent.
