Mozilla 1.2.1-r3 (gtk1) does not detect the flash-plugin. No clue what else to put here..
Some more information which might be related. Upon invokation, galeon-1.2.7 (compiled against mozilla-1.2.1-r1) complains about: LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /opt/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so [libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory] # ldd /opt/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x40239000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40288000) libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x4028b000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x4029a000) libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x4037d000) libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x4038d000) libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 => not found libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x403e5000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40407000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x40531000) libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x4053a000) libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x40543000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000) Notice the not found on the libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
vocis: emerge info and which versions of gcc do you have installed?

ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 fixed my flash plugin in both mozilla and galeon.
Same Problem, same solution, running Gentoo stable. But quite a bad feeling about it.
It seems that libflash.so is linked against libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.2 wich doesn't exist on gentoo system. maybe add it to lib-compat ?
*** Bug 12284 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
OK everyone, I've added lib-compat-1.1 to portage, which contains the required libstdc++ (from gcc-2.95.3 systems). That should sort out netscape-flash. However, I put both lib-compat-1.1 and the new netscape-flash which depends on it in the ~x86 profile, so PLEASE test this and report back. thanks :)
Works for me. I uninstalled netscape-flash (emerge -C netscape-flash) and removed the symbolic that I had created from comment 5. emerge -p netscape-flash, gave me: These are the packages that I would merge, in order. Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild U ] sys-libs/lib-compat-1.1 [1.0-r2] [ebuild N ] net-www/netscape-flash-6.0.69-r1 galeon and mozilla now show the flash plugin.
Same here, but Mozilla shows a grey rectangle when it's suposed to show a flash animation. Flash 6.0.69-r1 lib-compat 1.1 mozilla 1.2.1-r3 (gtk2)
Regarding comment 11, my setup is slightly different. sys-libs/lib-compat-1.0-r2 * sys-libs/lib-compat-1.1 * net-www/mozilla-1.2.1-r3 * net-www/netscape-flash-6.0.69-r1 * I happen to be using gtk1 version of mozilla. Maybe your flash not showing up in mozilla-gtk2 is more of a gtk2 problem.
Maybe it's a gtk2 problem. I have just checked that flash plugin is working perfectly with kde3.1-rc2's konqueror. By the way, it's still a problem that the standalone flash player doesn't work :/
closing this bug. gtk2 + mozilla seems to be full of holes anyway, from upstream
