You will find the help you need there (search for "flash" in the pages, look at the first occurence) : http://forum.hardware.fr/hardwarefr/OSAlternatifs/Topic-FreeBSD-FreeBSD-released-sujet-53327-1.htm short translation from french to english: Macromedia does not give any flash plugin for FreeBSD. You need to use the linux plugin. This method should work with Opera and Firefox. First install linux-flashplugin6 (in /usr/ports/www/linux-flashplugin6). Second, install linuxpluginwrapper (NOT flashpluginwrapper...) Then copy /usr/local/share/examples/linuxpluginwrapper/libmap.conf-FreeBSD6 to /etc/libmap.conf (and edit as you want) then cd ........ and the two ln :) Note that flash 7 seems to be known as buggy. I installed flash 6 with that method yesterday, and it works perfectly on firefox 1.0.7 and FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE. Do not forget to link the files! Regards. Hope this is correct for you, and hope that was clear :) -- Ivan
