So a few days ago, windows was in dire need of reinstall, so I backed up my precious data (read: mp3 collection), quickformatted my drive and reached for my win 98 cd only to find (queues suspensful music) it was gone! It apparently sprouted legs and ran off. I figure, what better time to install linux, so I got mandrake 8.0. Installation went fine (I even managed to get my vortex 2 based sound to work 
), but these web browsers are killing me. Fonts too small, incorrect layout, etc. I've managed to get most of this worked out and settled on using konqueror but unfortunately there is no current flash support. Everytime I hit the intro page to this site I get hit with a popup to macromedia's site telling me that they cant find a web player that best matches my browser. That's fine, but seeing that frickin window makes me want to drink a gallon of turpentine. Does anybody have any suggestions as to some sort of workaround I can use to at least trick konqueror into thinking that it does support flash so I can avoid ingesting any hazordous chemicals?
