I'm also a big fan of Opera and it's working well with Flash on the last PC-BSD alpha with no work on my part. Kris, did you have to add any secret sauce to get Flash working so well with Firefox, Konqueror, and Opera in the last alpha? FYI, we're working closely with Adobe to get native Flash on FreeBSD. I expect we'll have a solution at some point this year. -matt
