 +>A nice Flash article, Jared. Thanks. We may polish it up a bit for you, if you don't mind. As to the Chrome/Chromium information, I don't use either on my systems, so we'll have to wait and see if someone else will step up and help out here. Regards,  --- //[[wiki:user:nocturnal.slacker|V.

 +===== Recent versions do not work on old machines ===== 
 +Recent versions of Flash plugin do not work on "old" machines that do not have sse2 feature (refer to this LQ thread [[http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/adobe-flash-player-plugin-4175431429/page2.html#post4811574]] as well as the other LQ thread referred to in it). I guess some info about this point here would be of interest. I would prefer not to update the article myself because I don't know how to fit this info in it --- //[[wiki:user:gegechris99|Christophe Nguyen]] 2012/10/21 14:01//

 +===== Download link at Slackbuilds is broken ===== 
 +As said, the link is broken because there's a newer version out there... you can get it from here:

 +===== Flash for Chromium ===== 
 +FYI: You can have the most recent Pepper Flash with a Chromium browser too (extracted from the official Chrome binaries), as explained here: http://alien.slackbook.org/blog/chromium-for-slackware-with-salt-and-pepper/ \\  --- //[[wiki:user:alienbob|Eric Hameleers]] 2014/09/04 10:43//
