Also I had to create a file named /etc/libmap.conf with the following in it: # Flash6 with Konqueror [/usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so] libpthread.so.0 pluginwrapper/flash6.so libdl.so.2 pluginwrapper/flash6.so libz.so.1 libz.so.3 libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 libstdc++.so.5 libm.so.6 libm.so.4 libc.so.6 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
