View source for Install Pepperflash for Firefox

Adobe stopped developing Flash for Linux many moons ago.  As such, ever since moving to 14.04 LTS, I've found that the Flash plugin for Firefox is extraordinarily flakey.  The best alternative I've found is Googles Pepperflash.  Pepperflash is actually made to work with Chromium, but some very nice people have created a wrapper for it called Fresh Flash.  Here's how to install it:

1. Install Pepper Flash

   sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree
   sudo update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree --install
   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:skunk/pepper-flash
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install pepflashplugin-installer

2. Create a symlink for the plugin

   sudo mkdir -p /opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash
   sudo chmod -R 755 /opt/google
   sudo ln -s /usr/lib/pepflashplugin-installer/libpepflashplayer.so /opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash

3. Install Fresh Player Plugin:

   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install freshplayerplugin

4. Restart your browser and noe Flash should work :-)
