This just confirms that you need some piece of extra software with a native browser as long as we don't have a convincing petition to Macromedia or Realaudio people to make FreeBSD version of their products (together with Linux, Solaris,... versions). Thanks for pointing this out anyway. -- Zvezdan Petkovic <zvezdan@cs.wm.edu> http://www.cs.wm.edu/~zvezdan/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
