   You have to install 32 bit version of Google Chrome package to use this workaround.

   Why do you use Chrome? Try Chrommium from Contrib. Plugins work by default 😉

   Just digged problem little deeper.
   To use flash in 64 bit version you need to link to lib64 directory:
   cd /opt/google/chrome

   ln -s /usr/lib64/browser-plugins/ plugins

   Mám openSUSE 11.2 32bit, a podarilo sa mi v Google Chrome Beta pre Linux spojazdniť Flash.
   Ale Flash v Google Chrome v Linuxe, (otestoval som zatiaľ len na openSUSE 11.2 Gnome s Kernelom 2.6.32) a Flash v Chrome nefunguje úplne tak ako by mal . . .

    Appreciate your efforts….I use openSuse 11.1 with 64 bit processor. Tried to fix by both ways suggested by Miguel and Yuri….didn’t work 🙁 help

      Hey Naren!! I solved it… first tried the Miguel way (Im using 64bit opensuse too) and didn’t, so tried the Yuri one, neither
      But realized that the second didn’t make any effect because the directory “plugins” already exists, so manually erased it:

      cd /opt/google/chrome

      rm plugins


      and then tried the Yuri:

      ln -s /usr/lib64/browser-plugins/ plugins

      and that did the trick, Now flash works on my machine with openSUSE 11.2 x86_64
