Steven, did you install Adobe Flash 9?

No, I have flash 7 (which is the last version
that works with gtk1). Unfortunately most
sites need flash 9 or 10.

Cheers,

I installed all the libraries needed by Flashplayer 10
(Slackware 11 x11 libraries, fontconfig, elflibs, gtk2, may need other stuff that I already had such as pango/cairo libraries).
Left out man doc info locale type stuff from x11. Maybe only the lib*so files are needed from all these packages. This time I got all the libraries and then ran ldconfig.

Downloaded a file from Adobe install_flashplayer_10.tar.gz
which unpacks to libflashplayer.so and copied that as instructed to the plugins directory of seamonkey. It finds all its dependencies with ldd except those in the seamonkey directory (which it should find once seamonkey is loaded).

Is not listed by about:plugins or in the toolbar menus, and on exit Seamonkey tell me that libflashplayer.so cannot handle TLS data.

TLS is thread-local storage.
libflashplayer.so may be tls-enabled and glibc not or vice versa.
Over my head.

There is some bug in Seamonkey having to do with flash player.

I will hunt down flashplayer 9 and try again.
