YO:

Is there ANY Shockwave support in Linux. I tried downloading Shockwave and it told me that I needed a newer browser. Can I get Shockwave with Linux?

No there is not. There is a flash player however. http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/alternates/

I guess you can join the 11,163 other people who want a shockwave player and sign the petition http://www.petitiononline.com/linuxswp/petition.html

actually if you use codeweavers crossover, you can use the windows version of the shockwave plugin

From what I understand macromedia ignores those petitions. If you want their attention, you need to post your request here:
