There are some things that I found out about Flash recently:
* Flash is a memory hog, and doesn't like it if it doesn't get all the memory
it wants (i.e. it won't start if it doesn't have enough memory, so turn off
unnecessary apps.)
* Flash under Konqueror uses artsd, but for some reason chokes if you have
esd running alongside it. I have no idea why.
* Make sure you have the package libqt2-gl installed. I couldn't get Flash
to work until I installed this.
* Make sure you have some lesstif package installed. This is required for
Konqueror to run any Netscape plugin.
Good luck!
