Yes adobe flash player is the one I can't get working. Shockwave came
default. Here is the version I am running: (with all updates)

Linux billabong 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5 #1 SMP Tue Dec 16 12:03:43 EST 2008 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux

billabong: ==> file /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so
/usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel
80386, version 1 (SYSV), stripped

billabong:~ ==> ls -l /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Mar 29 08:41 libflashplayer.so ->
/usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so

billabong:~ ==> rpm --verify flash-plugin && echo $?
0

I have tried the rpm install and the manual install of adobe flash... md5 of
both binaries is the same.

Thanks for any help,
