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
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.
