Previously Opera used > the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) directly. <snip> http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/desktop-browsers.html 7.2.5 Opera Opera is a full-featured and standards-compliant browser. It also comes with a built-in mail and news reader, an IRC client, an RSS/Atom feeds reader and much more. Despite this, Opera is relatively lightweight and very fast. It comes in two flavors: a “native” FreeBSD version and a version that runs under Linux emulation. To browse the Web with the FreeBSD version of Opera, install the package: # pkg_add -r opera Some FTP sites do not have all the packages, but Opera can still be obtained through the Ports Collection by typing: # cd /usr/ports/www/opera # make install clean To install the Linux version of Opera, substitute linux-opera in place of opera in the example above. The Adobe Flash plugin is not available for FreeBSD. However, a Linux® version of the plugin exists. To install this version, the www/linux-f10-flashplugin11 port has to be installed, then install the port www/opera-linuxplugins: # cd /usr/ports/www/linux-f10-flashplugin11 # make install clean # cd /usr/ports/www/opera-linuxplugins # make install clean You can check the presence of the plugin: start your browser, enter opera:plugins in the location bar and press Enter. A list should appear with all the currently available plugins. To add the Java plugin, follow the instructions for Firefox[0].
