Subject: [gentoo-user] [OT] flashplugin detection

1 I'm an e-season ticket holder at liverpoolfc.tv where I can listen to live
2 commentary of all the games and watch video highlights. Last season
3 everything worked fine (or more or less fine), this season they have changed
4 the econsole to work with flash. I have the flashplugin installed and it
5 works. However, when I launch the econsole it says it needs flashplugin
6 installed (it can't detect it) as a consequence I can't access the media
7 streams (except through the technical support page). I've complained to the
8 technical support but got the usual answer "we do not fully support or test
9 on Linux systems" Before I write back an tell them what I think about that,
10 I would like to be able to tell them how to fix it.
11 So after that preamble, the question is, how does their system detect the
12 presence of the flashplugin on my browser. Is it simply that they need the
13 correct file name (libflashplayer.so) in their config or is it more
14 complicated than that?
15 Thanks
