hi all, i am using Konqueror on KDE3.0 on SuSE8.1 as my web-browser, and i don't have Netscape installed... however you can install Netscape plugins into Konqueror! How do i install Macromedia Flash 6?? i have downloaded the required files and hit a small problem... it needs to know the netscape install path :( i have tried entering the directories Konqueror looks at for its netscape plugin, i've tried just searching fo netscape, mozilla, and konqueror and none are accepted... i have tried telling Konqueror to check the directory containing the installation files for plugins... no good... what do i do? where do i turn?? i know it'll be something simple and obvious but i have no sparks of inspiration. thanks for any assistance yours iain --------------------------- Please do not reply to this address... it wont work!! i'll check back for your response

Something like /usr/local/netscape/plugins. Maybe if the path that Konqueror is looking for actually exists, it will work.

Choose Install packages/software. There is a package that is called something like 'netscape_plugins'. Install that package. After that your installer for flash will work. hth, dariush -----------== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Uncensored Usenet News ==---------- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----= Over 100,000 Newsgroups - Unlimited Fast Downloads - 19 Servers =-----

I don't know, I haven't looked there. Personally, I haven't gotten around to installing Flash in my own Konqueror, mainly because I don't want to wait for some pointless Flash "intro" to load! -- Ryan Denlinger Web Designer http://www.footarch.com/ http://www.drhenson.net/
