I hope not because I'm using it right now with a site that requires flash 9. IMO, it works much better than windows firefox with wine emulation plus the linux firefox-devel has a security issue, I believe. The only issue is with a few extra processes for flash on ocassion, but I'm not complaining. The version of FBSD firefox from ports firefox3 I'm using is 3.0.5. ed > >> port (firefox-3.0.5_1,1) NOT firefox-devel, all the plugins that you >> want such as linux-flashplugin-9.0r152 and any others then >> nspluginwrapper-1.2.2_2 and run the script and start firefox3 and all >> should be well if I haven't forgotten something. >> >> I would guess that the principal problem is the firefox-devel port >> rather than firefox3.
