Fedora 19 - Install Adobe, flash player, drivers, Google Chrome all at once

A few months ago came the version of the Fedora 19 distribution, plus many updates, brought several new important features. The official Fedora repositories have hundreds of packages, applications and games. But as in most other GNU / Linux distributions do not come by default codecs and proprietary software for licensing reasons, so are not included in any official repository.

Some apps were not found in the official Fedora repositories, for example, the famous open source VLC Media Player, will be included in some proprietary software libraries, and so it is not available in official one. For users who want to install VLC, SMPlayer, proprietary drivers for your video cards AMD and Nvidia, as FFMpeg tools, unrar, unace and etc, you can use the RPM Fusion repository.

ADDING REPOSITORY RPM FUSION

Adding RPM Fusion repository in Fedora 19 is very simple, just open the terminal and type:

chmod + x *. bin
su -c 'yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm'

ADDING REPOSITORY OF ADOBE

If you want to install the plugin Adobe Flash Player on Fedora 19, you can use the repository offered by Adobe:

For Fedora 19 32-bit:
su
rpm -ivh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux

For Fedora 19 64-bit:
su
rpm -ivh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-x86_64-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux

To install the Flash Plugin


su
yum check-update
yum install flash-plugin

ADDING REPOSITORY OF GOOGLE
