I don't know the answer to your question, but as a side note you don't need to install the alpha flashplugin from aur. You can install the one from extra using:

pacman -S flashplugin

Opera should use the firefox plugins without user intervention. Check your plugin path in Tools --> Preferences --> Advanced --> Content --> Plugin Options --> Modify plugin path. It should include the folder where the firefox plugins are.

Perfect. All I had to do was click a check-box! Opera is wonderful.

Re: 64-bit flashplayer for Opera

That's really impressive!
I tried Opera about four years ago and gave up on it because of sites blocking it and it's lack of decent Ad-blocking.
It sure has changed! I am impressed with the mail/client too. Imagine...fastest browser, efficient email at under 9megs download size.
Arch/Xfce/Opera........what could be lighter or faster!
Obviously I'm sold. Thanks again for the plugin info.

Re: 64-bit flashplayer for Opera

I agree on the browser. The mail client is terribly fast too, but not very configurable: some of the labels it creates are really unuseful for me and there is no way to get rid of them. So I admit that I run opera as 'opera -nomail -notrayicon' (also the tray icon is not so useful to me)

Opera is my fav web browser, but their adblock is too bad. And is not open source. But works perfect with flash and new snapshots are qt4 shared.


Excuse my poor English.
