Flash and Konqueror



I think someone recently had a question about getting konqueror to run
Flash. I have it working but it doesn't seem to be very reliable in that
some flash play and some don't probably related to flash movie version.

Anyway, to get it to work was very easy.
1) apt-get install konqueror-nsplugins

2) download and uncompress the flash player for linux from macromedia

3) Copy libflashplayer.x to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
and flashplayer.xpt to /usr/lib/mozilla/components/

4) In Settings for Konqueror->plugins check scan at startup to scan the
mozilla folder

5) Restart the browser and What a HO! She's playin' flash.

Firefox has the flashblock extension to stop the playing of the very
movies I've configured Konqueror to play. Very convenient.
