Last night I installed Opensuse 11. Going to sites like Youtube it said I needed Flash. I tried to dl the rpm and it tells me
Error
Package /tmp/flash-plugin-10.0.12.36-release .i386.rpm could not be installed.
Details:
subprocess failed. Error:RPM failed: error: failed to stat /home/jss/.gvfs: Permission denied package flash-plugin-10.0.12.36 release is already installed.
So I get it. It is already installed, but it must be in the wrong place?

Have you tried to install flash using the software manager or did you download an rpm? The error looks like you downloaded an rpm and tried to install without root priviledges.
