Something went wrong, correct comment:

I'm on Kubuntu 10.10 here and updated to KDE SC 4.6 RC1 with Kubuntu's
repositories. I use the 64-bit beta of Flash and simply placed the
libflashplayer.so file in ~/.mozilla/plugins. This was enough to get it working
on most websites when viewing with Rekonq including YouTube, however it doesn't
work on all websites.

For example videos on http://www.dumpert.nl/filmpjes/ display white space on
the place were the video should be shown. The www.weeronline.nl website which
the reporter mentions also doesn't display Flash content. The websites
http://headlines.nos.nl/ and http://www.autoweek.nl/videoindex.php are also
examples with non-working Flash videos.

Before migrating to KDE on Kubuntu I was using Epiphany, Firefox and Chrome on
Ubuntu with the same plugin and it worked fine, so I think something is indeed
wrong with KDE's implementation of WebKit.

Also https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=rekonq+flash turns up some
other bugs filed against Rekonq itself, possibly some of these could be
related?
