Garrett,

That would be cool - I've not tried anything newer than Flash 7, although I
guess there wasn't anything newer until recently, for Linux anyway.  Would
be great if you could get it to work.

I've just noticed that there's a www/opera-linuxplugins port that appears
to install Opera 9.10 with the necessary configuration tweaks to use Linux
plugins.  It should just be a matter of installing that, then adding the
install dirs of the various plugins to Opera's plugin path...

Cheers,

	Scott
