I have konqueror and netscape 4.77. I am trying to set up netscape to work wiht flash. Can someone tell me from start to finish(mime types and all) how to make flash work. Please help. I already tried everything in the README. Thanks in advance.

I dunno about Konqueror. For Netscape, in your plugins directory you should have a
libflashplayer.so.

You may want to browse to "about :plugins" to verify this.

In Netscape, Edit->Preferences->Navigator->Applications->New

MIMEType is "application/x-shockwave-flash"
For Plug In select "Shockwave Flash"

Also, add another one, same plugin, but MIMEType is "application/futuresplash"

The instructions are basically the same for Mozilla (same plugin file and everything, just copy it over).
