It works here on a Firefox 3.0 beta1 build from Mozilla:

Well, the package 9.0.115.0-1 went to extra. There are still some Browser issues. In my Blog I wrote a little about it.

Ah. So the new flash does not run with Konqueror either.

Should there perhaps be a warning attached to this upgrade which will break Opera/Konq flash?

Is there any reason, why it actually went to extra, albeit not working for several browsers?

It's a critical security update, after all.

Well, then it's acceptable in terms of security, but it's a hard decision to improve security while breaking the app for a whole bunch of people. What is better then? Security flaws and functionality or security without functionality?

I'm hoping for quick updates, concerning KDE.

Personal i find that with this update the adobe flashplugin steps to be a firefox module and lost the state of being a web application which is all not the error of any arch dev. But i find it not a good idea to break all non-mozilla browsers without any alternative solution and it is inconsequent if another security update as at example seamonkey stay still again in testing.

I'm hoping for quick updates, concerning KDE.

I hope more that in the future there will be a way to live without adobe under KDE in the same fantastic way as swfdec offers it at the moment for mozilla-based browsers.

@skottish I've tested gnash too but at the moment it don't looks so good as swfdec. But you be right the integration of it is the best and it could be the first option in the future.
