Version:           4.1.2 (KDE 4.1.2) "release 48.1" (using 4.1.67 (KDE 4.1.67 (KDE 4.2 >= 20080918)) "release 1.2", KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop / openSUSE_11.0)

to reproduce try to add Google Talk applet on www.igoogle.com and inspite of flash 10 installed (which works in firefox and konqueror on other pages as well) it tells that it's unable to localize flash

"Oops!

The Google Talk Gadget requires Adobe Flash Player version 9 or higher.
You can install the player  here.

To complete the installation, quit all running instances of your browser."

still present in 4.1.3

Comment 2 Sergio Liberman Bronfman 2008-12-10 21:55:14 UTC

I have exactly the same problem, so I confirm it. Currently using KUbuntu 8.10 fresh install and updated. I tried to download the flash player from the repos, and then I downloaded de deb package from Adobe's server and it's the same.

and still present in kde 4.2beta1

Comment 4 Martin Koller 2011-06-24 18:04:25 UTC

Trying with 4.6.4, I get the following error dialog while adding the gadget:

ERROR: Possible problem with your *.gwt.xml module file.
The compile time user.agent value (safari) does not match the runtime user.agent value (gecko1_8). Expect more errors.

konqueror then goes to 100% CPU and clearly stops reacting. I need to kill it.

Flash and Netscape plugins are no longer supported.  Neither is Google Talk.
