Hi,
I'm going through the same thing. If anyone has gotten this on solved
I'd love to know. Several of the websites that I use have flash and
will not work without it.
I have tried:
CVSuping my ports tree and building the latest firefox
Updating linuxpluginwrapper
Changing from www/linux-flashplugin6 to www/linuxflashplugin7
Applying the rtld-elf patch.
Using linux-firefox rather than the FreeBSD native one.
The result is always the same. Hit www.doonesbury.com and your browser
packs it in.
