Flash sometimes works with konqueror, sometimes not.

Sometmies I see an empty space, sometimes I see that black youtube background with the white circles starting to circle around, then it freezes.

Won't Konq work with 64bit flash? Current flash is 32bit only, Adobe did not release a 64bit version. I hope it will come, but I doubt it. The former flash version was working fine in all browsers, but it has HUGE security problems, so better don't use it. > I have reinstalled kde-base/nsplugins but Konqueror will still not > play. I had to add /usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins , then the Scan button found the plugins. Wonko
