I've never gotten pepperflash from SBo working on any browser. Added to

I learned what I had done wrong re: pepperflash and firefox.  From
Slackbuilds.org you need BOTH

  freshplayerplugin
  pepperflash-plugin

It's a more complex install, so unless you need specific features the
regular flashplayer-plugin will work fine.

(remember to restart firefox after installation!)

I reinstalled flashplayer-plugin and restarted Firefox. The next problem was verifying that it works. The only way I knew it didn't work was when a page showed up that told me I needed Flash. I didn't keep track of that page. But, I went looking for a sample to try and found:

http://www.dhs.state.il.us/accessibility/tests/flash/video.html

Oddly, while it works on the Slackware laptop, it doesn't work on my Ubuntu 18 desktop. Why it's odd is that I've never had a problem viewing BBC news items in Firefox in Ubuntu 18. Weird. But it shouldn't happen again on the laptop.

Check off another resolved issue.

Thanks.
