,--- You/Harald (Fri, 8 Oct 2010 20:00:46 +0200) ----*
| My hope to find an interim solution for the flashplayer nightmare
| (while waiting for gnash) can be measured by the amount of hours
| I've spent to get flash - easily and long-term-wise -  playing  on FreeBSD,
| Ubuntu, PCBSD...
| 
| I guess that FreeBSD will never be supported by Adobe.

Flash works beautifully for me on FreeBSD 8.1 in both Firefox 3.6 (use
the instructions at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/desktop-browsers.html)
and in Opera (linux and native.)

Is your problem "flash" or "audio" (i.e. can you play an mp3 file with
mpg123, for example)?
