I'm having trouble getting the flash plugin to work with the KDE web
browser konqueror; it works fine with mozilla, galeon, and netscape 7.

I downloaded the latest flash plugin from Macromedia and installed
the two files (libflashplayer.so and ShockwaveFlass.class)
in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.  This is the Flash Player 5 Netscape Plugin
for Linux, dated 9 September 2002.

I set up konqueror to look in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins for plugins, and
libflashplayer.so shows up in the konqueror plugin list.

But when I visit a site that uses flash (e.g. www.coppercolorado.com)
I get many errors of the form:

"Unable to load Netscape plugin for
http://www.coppercolorado.com/home_media/home_headertabs.swf";

I also tried putting the flash plugins in /usr/lib/netscape/plugins,
and having konqueror search there, but still no success.

I also tried deleting my $HOME/.kde directory and restarting konqueror,
but this did not work either.

Has anyone gotten the flash plugin to work with konqueror on RH 8.0?
