IMHO, when dealing with the Flash plugin, the optimal method is to go to macromedia.com and download the flash_linux.tar.gz then extract it to a tmp dir and move the *.class and *.so files (there should only be two file i believe) into your /usr/lib/netscape/plugins (or /usr/local/netscape/plugins as the case may be). Re-open netscape and visit a flash site to test (for example : http://www.odslinux.com/odslinux.swf ).
Although there are a few open source derivatives, they do not comply with the latest versions of flash. So if you go that route you will have possibly unpredictable results. -- Kevin C. Krinke Open Door Software Inc. http://www.odslinux.com
