Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc-4.1.2

I cannot see the flash test page:

Using 9.0.r48 and kde-3.5.7 updated from SVN. On the konsole
I am getting the following errors:

======================================================================
DCOP:  'anonymous-22219' now known as 'nspluginviewer-22092'

By the way, same flash plugin works just fine with firefox-1.5.0.12,
so it cannot the a flash player bug!

Comment 2 S. Umar 2007-07-21 20:23:07 UTC

Those errors go away if I downgrade to gtk-2.10.13 from 2.10.14. But the
flash player still does not work.

Comment 3 S. Umar 2007-10-13 15:53:13 UTC

This is still a problem with the latest flash players. I guess it would not
be *prudent* for a kde application like konqueror to call gtk_init before
loading the flash player! But an unofficial patch would be appreciated since
I like using konqueror.

This is a problem for Flash plugin >9.0 r60, which uses GTK for user interface.

Comment 5 Shinjo Park 2007-12-05 15:03:28 UTC

Also this problem is exist in recent KDE 4 snapshots, too.

I noticed the same things both in konquerror 3.5.8 and 4.0.0

Comment 8 A. Spehr 2008-06-16 12:51:59 UTC

flash 9.0.115 & 3.5.9 & 4.00.82 (ie 4.1beta) ---> this works fine
