I have used both Firefox and Opera and have never gotten flash to work as easily and consistently as it does under Windows. When the added burden of having to use wrappers, etc, it is just not worth the hassle. I have seen references to system linking files to make flash work; however, I have better things to do than invest huge amounts of time attempting to get something to work when it is already technologically possible to do so without all that individual intervention. It does seem rather ironic that we claim that FreeBSD is a superior OS to Microsoft's Windows; however, we are unable to get even a common web add-on like flash to work reliably, consistently. Finger pointing does not alleviate the situation. --=20 Gerard gerard@seibercom.net Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.
