<title>Installare il plugin Flash</title>

<p><app>Flash</app> è un <em>plugin</em> per il browser web che consente di visualizzare i video e usare le pagine web interattive di alcuni siti Internet. Alcuni siti non funzionano senza Flash.</p>

<p>Would be nice to (soft?) link to a page on the software installer</p>

<p>If you do not have Flash installed, you will probably see a message telling you so when you visit a website that needs it. Flash is available as a free (but not open-source) download for most web browsers. Most Linux distributions have a version of Flash that you can install through their software installer (package manager) too.</p>

<steps>
 <title>If Flash is available from the software installer:</title>
 <item>
  <p>Open the software installer application and search for <input>flash</input>.</p>
 </item>
 <item>
  <p>Look for the <gui>Adobe Flash plug-in</gui>, <gui>Adobe Flash Player</gui> or similar and click to install it.</p>
 </item>
 <item>
  <p>If you have any web browser windows open, close them and then re-open them. The web browser should realize that Flash is installed when you open it again and you should now be able to view websites using Flash.</p>
 </item>
</steps>

<steps>
 <title>If Flash <em>is not</em> available from the software installer:</title>
 <item>
  <p>Go to the <link href="http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer">Flash Player download website</link>. Your browser and operating system should be automatically detected.</p>
 </item>
 <item>
  <p>Click where it says <gui>Select version to download</gui> and choose the type of software installer that works for your Linux distribution. If you don't know which to use, choose the <file>.tar.gz</file> option.</p>
 </item>
 <item>
  <p>Look at the <link href="http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/153/tn_15380.html">installation instructions for Flash</link> to learn how to install it for your web browser.</p>

 <title>Alternative open source a Flash</title>
 <p>Sono disponibili alcune alternative a Flash, libere e open source. In alcuni casi funzionano meglio del plugin Flash (per esempio, offrono una riproduzione audio migliore), ma non in altre circostanze (per esempio, non consentono la corretta visualizzazione di alcune pagine Flash più complesse presenti nel web).</p>
 <p>Si potrebbe voler provare una di questa se Flash non soddisfa le aspettative, oppure se si vuole usare quanto più possibile software open source sul proprio computer. Ecco alcune opzioni:</p>
