The module is showing as being installed on admin/build/modules, but I get a "page not found" when I go to admin/build/views/views_slideshow.
I've tried both 6.x-1.0-beta2 and 6.x-2.0-beta1. I also don't see a "slideshow" view type when adding a view. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

slideshow isn't a viewtype it is a style option.

Thanks, but I'm just trying to follow instructions found here: http://drupal.org/node/264145
It says:

# Configure the modules settings at admin/build/views/views_slideshow
# Create a new view at admin/build/views/add, and customize it for a slideshow as follows:

1. Basic Information = Name your view.
2. Enable checkbox to provide a page view or block view (or both).
3. View Type = choose a "Slideshow" option, such as Slideshow List (best value for a typical slideshow).

I get "page not found" at admin/build/views/views_slideshow. Isn't that a problem? And it says "View Type", not "View Style". I don't see a selection for style. I guess those instructions are really for Drupal 5. Have they changed for Drupal 6?

Those are directions for Drupal 5.x and views_slideshow 1.x and they won't work with Drupal 6.x because views and it's addon modules were rewritten for Drupal 6.x

under basic settings in your view, click on the style, and you will see "slideshow"

see: http://www.drupaltherapy.com/node/70 which is the screencast listed on this modules project page.
