I was wrong on assuming that the problem comes from the gtk update. I've managed to get the plugin to work with native firefox and opera. There are two things to try if the plugin is crashing: 1. edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and disable the Composite extension and set the ColorDepth to 24 OR 2. edit /usr/local/bin/firefox and add export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 in the beginning of the file The process is described here: http://www.erata.net/weblog/freebsd/2007/03/18/updateflash7-with-native-freebsd-browsers/ Hope it helps. -- Best Regards, Iulian Margarintescu http://www.erata.net eti@erata.net (spamassassin & pf & spamd all said it's OK to make it public ;-) ) Key ID: 0x03176E5CEDEFF7AB I prefer plain text email
