Just installed Lupu 528. I tried installing flash from the Puppy Lucid repo. Twice now its come up with 7 missing libs. Where can I find these, and why were they not included with the Flash? Any ideas?

Flash shouldn't have dependencies for Qt4 & kde libraries...have you installed anything else that might?

I see now. I downloaded install_flash_player_11_linux.i386.tar.gz, from the Adobe site, and see that, besides libflashplayer.so, it also has a kde4 flashplayer module. As standard pupversions don't come with kde4, you just need to extract libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.

But since you've installed the player from the repo, presumably it's also installed the kde4 version as well. You can just ignore the missing library warning as the module, in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, should work fine.
