FYI I run Linux version with no problem from a week or more. All I had to do was to fetch tar.gz version from a mirror site, copy files in /usr/local/firefox (my choice), install linux-gtk2 and symlink the linux-flashplugin7 files (yes, 7!) in /usr/local/firefox/plugins If there is anybody interested I could describe all these steps more detailed. Though it should be pretty nice if someone could commit a port for this (I see that linux-firefox is way too outdated), or better, get a final fix for FreeBSD native version. P.S. Do not forget Linux emulation, d'oh :) -- Adrian Pircalabu Public KeyID = 0x04329F5E -- This message was scanned for spam and viruses by BitDefender.
