+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> 64-bit (and adding it would not be very nice, as the media list is
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> already way too cluttered).
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> One option would be to build a x86_64 package that actually contains the
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> 32-bit flash player (and note that in description), with a dependency on
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> nspluginwrapper. When a proper 64-bit build is released by adobe, it
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> would be replaced with the 64-bit player.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> A suggests on nspluginwrapper I think; (actually I've never seen
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> nspluginwrapper work... might be my box/setup though).
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Usually I install the 32bit flash plugin and either use a 32bit
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> browser or 64bit konqueror (which uses the KDE4 wrapper) to watch
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> flash content.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Do you think this should be done, or would it add too much confusion?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Sorry, hit Send too fast.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Not confusion, but it's a bit hackish, a x86_64 skeleton package that
+</I>&gt;<i> will download a 32bit rpm, and install a 32bit closed-source binary
+</I>&gt;<i> blob...

+I have just installed Mageia on a 64 bit and the 64bit Flash .rpm is
+quite painless from the Adobe site.
