 Hi,

 I've just installed MDK9.2 with the upadtes w/o problems. However, I can't
 make flash (and shockwave was unavailable for MDK9.2) plugins work in
 Mozilla. I eve tried to install an rpm from
 http://macromedia.rediris.es/site_ri.html
 but didn't work, either.
 Any clues as to how solve this. Anybody had the same problem?

 TIA

Did the RPM put the plugin into /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4/plugins ?
If not then either move it or make a symlink.

As for shockwave AFAIK there is no linux version, but you can get the Windows 
version working if you buy Codeweavers 'Crossover Plugin' or with a bit more 
effort you can run it under Wine.

These two packages are in RPMS4/ on CD3 of the bittorrent Power Pack 
that was/is available to Club members.  I urpmi'ed them and the plugins 
for java and flash were set up automatically.  The flash links look like 
this:

$ ls /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ -l | grep flash
lrwxrwxrwx1 root root   41 Oct 21 08:14 flashplayer.xpt 
- /usr/lib/netscape/plugins/flashplayer.xpt
lrwxrwxrwx1 root root   43 Oct 21 08:14 
libflashplayer.so - /usr/lib/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so*
