adobe flash plugin under linux KDE

i've installed latest flash player plugin using tar.gz archive , checked via youtube.

now see "global settings" menu available (wasn't available before) click returns

with message "library kcm_adobe_flash_player wasn't found" kde shell. see in

/usr/share/kde4/services/kcm_adobe_flash_player.desktop

exec=kcmshell4 kcm_adobe_flash_player

while kcm_adobe_flash_player not includded. so, can grub kcm_adobe_flash_player?

other question: means line

notshowin=kde;

/usr/share/applications/flash-player-properties.desktop?

is smth unavailable in kde?

--------------------

os: kubuntu 12.04 x86-64

browser: 14.0.1 firefox

adobe plugin: 11,2,202,238

i tried on fresh fedora 17 kde install , worked fine.

did make sure uninstall previous versions of flash player? when grabbed tar.gz file how did install it? followed readme did following:

extracted contents of tar.gz
copied libflashplayer.so binary ~/.mozilla/plugins
$: cp libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/.
copied(as root) contents of usr /usr
#: cp -r usr/* /usr

i launched firefox , right click on flash content , selected "global settings..." native control panel launched expected.

please try steps above.

side note: realize on x86_64. firefox 64-bit also? flash player binary 64-bit? try steps above while setup similar environment yours. thanks...
