I have experienced the same problem while playing a flash movie (the DOOM 3 trailer). I think it is the linux plugin emulation (linuxpluginwrapper). I solved this by installing a linux browser (like 'linux-mozilla', 'linux-opera' or 'linux-mozillafirebird') with 'linux-flashplugin-x'. So there is not a plugin wrapper between the browser and the plugin. That should work like in Linux. If you use Java, the linux browser will use (one of) the linux JDKs. So you will have to enable 'linprocfs' in fstab. The port 'linux-mozillafirebird' indicates that is works with 'linux-flashplugin-6' and 'linux-blackdown-jdk14'. Others except 'linux-opera' appear to do not have Java support. In my FreeBSD-5.3 I have 'linux-opera' with 'linux-flashplugin-7' and 'linux-sun-jdk-1.4' (I saw the falsh movie, even in full-screen mode). And I also have 'linuxpluginwrapper' and 'jdk-1.4' (native) for the native version of 'mozilla'. Best Regards, Ale
