No shockwave player for linux?
 

Does Macromedia make a shockwave player for linux?? I have been wondering this for a while now and I cant find a site trhat has it. I went to the macromedia site and they have nothing under the shockwave player for linux.

There are a bunch of sites out there that I can't see or use because I dont have the Shockwave player! Such as my fantasy football draft and other sites.

Can somebody answer a few questions?

1. Is there a shockwave player for Linux?
2. If so where can I get it?

Thx

no, at least I haven't seen...I've searched for it too, and it looks like it simply does not exist for linux. reason? I don't know...you must ask Macromedia about that. but if there would be a shockwave player, I'd say you probably would find it in Macromedia's site... I've done a lot of googling and digging around this thing but no shockwave...just flash.

sorry but I cannot help you...and I doubt if anybody can, at least yet. you could, of course, contact Macromedia and ask them why this thing is as it is..

I wonder it too.

I kept looking and I found this http://www.konqueror.org/announcements/reaktivate.php check it out and see what you think. Somebody who has tried it please tell me what its all about and how I can get it set up.

hmm....seems like somebody's doing a good job or something :) except that it's for KDE, which I don't personally use anymore (stopped using it after RH6 times...)

but a nice thing anyway. if somebody has KDE, try it and post here what you think...I'm curious too :)

I know its a little late for a reply, but, here's a potential solution:
