Hello! On Mon, 16 Oct 2006, Duane Whitty wrote: > Has anyone else lost their flash7 plugin in firefox on 6-STABLE? I use native seamonkey-1.0.5 + linuxpluginwrapper-20051113_6 + linux-flashplugin-7.0r68, and this "toolchain" worked for simple flash content under RELENG_6 as of 2006.10.09, and continues to work under fresh RELENG_6 (2006.10.16). However, the following looks non-standard (it doesn't match corresponding section from /usr/local/share/examples/linuxpluginwrapper/libmap.conf-FreeBSD6 ) in your configuration: > Here is my current etc/libmap.conf which I updated after upgrading to the > most > recent firefox > > # [ALPHA SUPPORT] Flash7 with Mozilla > [/usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/libflashplayer.so] Are you sure that file location should point at symlink instead of the real file? My setup works correctly when I specify _real_ .so path here: [/usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so] and doesn't work when I specify symlink: [/usr/X11R6/lib/browser_linux_plugins/libflashplayer.so] In the latter case, flash plug-in shows fine under Help -> About Plug-ins, but fails during Flash content display: LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so [Shared object "libpthread.so.0" not found, required by "libflashplayer.so"] Generally, it helps _a lot_ to start the browser from xterm's command line in this situations - you'll see all error and warning messages then.
