Instructions from http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/desktop-browsers.html (*Under FreeBSD 8.X*) are followed. symlink /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/libflashplayer.so -> /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-f10-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so exists. Also packages nspluginwrapper-1.4.4 linux-f10-flashplugin-11.0r1.152 are installed. The reason why flash works in my main user is that ~/.mozilla/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so file exists there. I am not sure what this file ~/.mozilla/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so is and where did it come from. So does this mean that instructions in handbook are wrong? Yuri
