I'm still trying to figure out why flash
wouldn't work on this particular laptop.

I see this error/warning:

$ sysctl -a | grep "compat.linux.os"
<118>sysctl: unknown oid 'sysctl compat.linux.osrelease' at line 11: No such file or directory
compat.linux.osname: Linux
compat.linux.osrelease: 2.6.18
compat.linux.oss_version: 198144

I don't understand what it means.

$ grep linux /etc/sysctl.conf
compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18

This is correct, right?
I copied this from

$ grep osrelease /usr/ports/UPDATING| grep 18
     compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18
       compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18
       # sysctl compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18

Please advise

Thanks

Anton
