I have got flash working on Konqueror. I would have posted earlier, but have been sorting other problems. This is on FC2 with Flash-version-7.0.68. These are the 2 entries I have in Konquerors plugins. plugin /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so plugin /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nphelix.so Flash works ok on Konqueror, and the site I use to check it out is. http://laracameron.com/main.html The birds will fly around on the main page, choosing web/interactive, then 7 apples gelato will play some flash stuff, including sound.
