Hi i've installed flash player from tar.gz.
Now firefox can see it and in the adobe test page it works properly but when i try to load the ikea planner it doesn't works.
Really i can't figure out how resolve this problem.
Some advices?
Thanks in advance.

i've followed this answer:

I would seriously consider not using flash as it is a bug filled abomination full of security holes. That is... unless you absolutely have to.

Some of the Ikea furniture planners don't work, including the one that I wanted to use. I tried some others and they worked fine.

A link to what doesn't work for you would help others troubleshoot...

when i load the page the flash player seems to load something (i see a loading bar with ikea logo) but then i've got just a white square (empty.).If i right click on it i can see a tipical flash player settings pop-up (useless).

oh ok flash is going to dead.I don't want wast more of our time on this s--t. We can close this topic.I'll go directly to the store for my cad.thank you.

Ikea probably designed and tested it for Windows only. It will not work with Debian and Ikea won't be motivated to correct it because Windows has 98% of the desktop market and everything else doesn't matter to them. Perhaps when Ikea converts everything to HTML5 it will work correctly in Linux. One can only hope.

Seems to work for me.

Using LXQt, Chromium. I have pepperflashplugin-nonfree. (Don't have Firefox...)

A message appeared in the address bar telling me a plugin was blocked. I unblocked it.

I "managed" flash by allowing it
