I've got a question.  A friend has been loaning me his old laptop at  
work that runs Ubuntu and flash runs fine.  I have not been able to  
make it fail, yet at least. Could there be a clue in Ubuntu somewhare?  
  I'm actually thinking of running it under kqemu, if there isn't too  
much overhead, on my amd64 laptop until this gets sorted out.

If anyone has flash9 working dependably under freebsd, please let us know how.

Thanks,
