There's a typo in the last link: it should be
from
/usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin6/flashplayer.xpt
to
/usr/X11R6/lib/firefox/plugins/flashplayer.xpt
I put my links into /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins instead of firefox/plugins
and I'm then able to view flash in konqueror as well as firefox.
Also I had to create a file named /etc/libmap.conf with the following in it:
# Flash6 with Konqueror
[/usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so]
libpthread.so.0 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
libdl.so.2 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
libz.so.1 libz.so.3
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 libstdc++.so.5
libm.so.6 libm.so.4
libc.so.6 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
