FLASH: linux installation problem

[brownh]

Perhaps a FAQ, but this list is quiet, and so here goes.


Having trouble installing Flash player on a Linux (Pentium Pro

hardware, Red Hat 6.2 and Netscape Communicator 4.72 software).


I did the system-wide installation as root. Netscape about:plugins

reports the presence of Future Splash Player and Shockwave Flash and

that both are enabled. 


However, when I visit www.flash.com to see an example of Flash at

work, nothing happens. No sound nor movement. Should there be?
