People, I think that you can find answers to a lot of problems mentioned here if you start reading from http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2007-June/150737.html and from http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2007-June/150773.htm= l=20 Those posts cover flash7 with native browsers, possible problem after updating Xorg and some explanations related to {ns,linux}pluginwrapper. In my experience things remained the same in meantime. Nikola Le=C4=8Di=C4=87
