Though I'd ordinarily avoid subjects like this (I despise things like
swf), I actually have it working here so maybe this will help
somebody. I'm using Woody & Mozilla 0.9.7; "About Plugins" shows:
Java(TM) Plug-in Blackdown-1.3.1-02b-FCS
Shockwave Flash 5.0 r47
Blackdown Java-Linux Java(TM) Plug-in 1.3.1_02b
File name: /usr/lib/Acrobat4/Browsers/intellinux/nppdf.so
File name: /usr/lib/netscape/plugins-libc6/rpnp.so
Flash was installed into a previous SuSE setup, and I just had to
point Debian's Mozilla at that to get it to work:
File name: /home/keeling/flash_linux/libflashplayer.so
I use Gnome + Libranet 2.0 (Woody) apt-get upgrade-ed to 3.0r2, fwiw.
