Hi!
I have it working here. The "trick" was to install the FLASH files to
one of the directories scanned by Konqueror for plugins and have it
re-scan for plugins. The appropriate menu in Konqueror to do this is in
"Settings > Configure Konqueror > [Netscape Icon] > Scan Tab". Mine
already had a list of directories to scan, including my Mozilla
directory (/usr/lib/mozilla-9.1/plugins) and Netscape.
You probably have to "enable plugins globally" under the same menu >
Konqueeror Browser Icon > Plugins TAb if you want it available to all
users....dunno, but I did it here & it "works".
