Won't Konq work with 64bit flash? There is NO 64 bit flash in the latest packages, confirmed in the ebuild. $ equery files adobe-flash * Searching for adobeflash ... * Contents of www-plugins/adobe-flash-10.1.53.64: /etc /etc/adobe /etc/adobe/mms.cfg /opt /opt/netscape /opt/netscape/plugins32 /opt/netscape/plugins32/libflashplayer.so /usr /usr/lib32 /usr/lib32/nsbrowser /usr/lib32/nsbrowser/plugins /usr/lib32/nsbrowser/plugins/libflashplayer.so -> /opt/netscape/plugins32/libflashplayer.so /usr/share /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/adobe-flash-10.1.53.64 /usr/share/doc/adobe-flash-10.1.53.64/readme.txt.bz2 a...@nazgul ~ $ eix adobe-flash [I] www-plugins/adobe-flash Available versions: (~)9.0.277.0!m!s 10.0.45.2!m!s (~)10.0.45.2-r1!m!s 10.1.53.64!m!s {+32bit +64bit multilib} Installed versions: 10.1.53.64!m!s(20:16:52 19/06/10)(multilib) Homepage: http://www.adobe.com/ Description: Adobe Flash Player > I have reinstalled kde-base/nsplugins but Konqueror will still not play. You need nspluginwrapper installed and configured. It will find all your 32- bit plugins and do the necessary to make Konqueror aware of them. This doesn't happen automatically, every time you update a plugin the config is broken and has to be redone. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
