You know that you have to install it?
net-www/netscape-flash is already installed, do I need something else?
Does it show up in Opera's 'Plugins' list (File/Preferences/Plugins)?
If so, verify that 'Enable Plugins' checkbox is checked in Multimedia preferences (File/Preferences/Multimedia).
Did 'net-www/libsflash' get installed?

IF SO, install lesstif, a motif clone which includes libXm.so.2 using 'emerge -u x11-libs/lesstif'.

------------- 8< -----------------------------------I suspect that this is the real issue. I am going to report a bug pertaining to this, because if I had this problem, everyone else is too ... and there should be a dependency check for Opera AND Flash = install Lesstif in the portage tree.
Let me know if this helps, or I will lose sleep! :)
