Author: gjb Date: Sun Jun 10 15:26:31 2012 New Revision: 39018 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/39018 Log: As far as I can tell, linprocfs(5) is no longer required for proper functionality of the Flash plugin within Firefox. I do not know when this changed, nor what changed (i.e., if this is a Firefox change or not). Remove recommendation to ensure linprocfs is mounted, as a result.
