Making sure Flash runs in Firefox is a start, but I've used the flash plugin and the mono web browser control before, and to get it to work, I had to run my program like this:
MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/lib64/browser-plugins/ mono /path/to/my/app.exe Without telling the "browser" where to find plugins, it won't be able to load the flash player. The "/usr/lib64/browser-plugins/" will need to be modified to point to the location where your flash player is installed (could be /usr/lib/browser-plugins/ or somewhere in your home folder, or somewhere else in /usr depending on how the plugin is installed). The actual flash player plugin is named libflashplayer.so so once you find a folder that has that file in it, use that. Hope that helps.
