I'm using RELENG_7 as of yesterday which appears to have the linprocfs fixes from CURRENT, and I also updated linux-flashplayer9 with the patch from the above PR. When trying to use Flash 9 in linux-opera a few Flash items work (such as Adobe's test page which confirms it is using version 9 and sound does work on the rollovers there), but most things including YouTube videos or videos from other sites either do not play at all and lock up immediately or play for a few seconds and then lock up: ---------------- opera: Plug-in 90514 is not responding. It will be closed. opera: Define environment variable OPERA_KEEP_BLOCKED_PLUGIN to keep blocked plug-ins. ---------------- Trying with linux-firefox and linux-firefox-devel gives similar results except Firefox crashes entirely on most Flash sites. I was using linux_base-fc4 and 2.4.2 however I updated to linux_base-f8 and 2.6.16 since I saw others in the above emulation@ thread having success with f8. There doesn't seem to be any change with f8. Is this still the expected behavior? I'm not sure if these fixes were supposed to fix everything related to Flash 9 or if there are still things to be done, so I'm just giving it a try and posting the results. I am running amd64 by the way.
