Hi xnl96,

If you want advice, rather install Flash player 9, I had many problems with version 10.

What say:

pkg_version | grep linux

And:

sysctl -a | grep linux


Is the plugin appears in firefox ? (about:plugins)

There is a way/kernelpatch to make the flash player NOT crash after every youtube video I watch?

You have 2 different linux_base installed. Remove all the linux-* packages. Add to /etc/make.conf:

OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=f8
OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS=f8

And rebuild linux_base-f8 and nspluginwrapper. You may also need to reinstall the linux-flashplayer.

I do what you say but the same trouble and I type truss firefox and the next code contains same problem stat("/home/alex/.mozilla/firefox/init.d",0xbfbfe5bc) ERR#2 'No such file or directory'

$ uname -rp
7.2-RELEASE i386

I've installed flashplayer in one go...
After reading the howto at Aragon's site and the comment from Markus. I decided that I should try it without linux_base-f8

I updated ports and then followed the howto with a minor adjustment.

Add linux_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf.
Add compat.linux.osrelease=2.4.2 to /etc/sysctl.conf.
Add this line to /etc/fstab:
linproc /usr/compat/linux/proc linprocfs rw 0 0
rehash
mkdir -p /usr/compat/linux/proc
mount /usr/compat/linux/proc
/etc/rc.d/abi start
/etc/rc.d/sysctl start
cd /usr/ports/www/linux-flashplugin9 && make install clean
rehash
cd /usr/ports/www/nspluginwrapper && make install clean
rehash
nspluginwrapper -v -a -i
rehash

Restart or open Firefox 3 and enter about:plugins into your address bar. If not then:

cd /usr/local/lib/firefox3/plugins && ln -s /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
rehash

i get this after runing firefox3.5.5 from command line , i try change it or make symbol link to it ,but this does not make flash palyer work for me .
i am using linuxbase-fc8 .

[SIFE]

with linux_base-f10 and flash player10 i can get flash ,after that run firefox from command line and see if any missing module ,let say you get: libltdl.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
go to pbone.net search for it and then download it (you have download the package you are run in emulator in our case is fedora 10) .
wget download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Fedora/i386/os/Packages/libtool-ltdl-1.5.26-4.fc10.i386.rpm
now exract the rpm content and move it to /compat/linux
rpm2cpio libtool-ltdl-1.5.26-4.fc10.i386.rpm | cpio -idv
you will find in current directory usr or lib that is depend in the content of package and how the hirachi of lib's .
cp -R usr/ /compat/linux/usr/
do this as firefox tell you any missing library ,this was work for me and now i get site required flash .
by way any one want flash he can use my browser :D .

[lumiwa]

I never had flashplugin installed (I had gnash) but I will give a try now but before I start I have one question: does flashplugin works just on Firefox or it work also on Opera or Konqueror (gnash does).

Thanks in advance,

Mitja

It work on all the browser for me. But make all my computer run slow. I don't understand that why I use swfdec-plugin.

I didn't decided yet... GNASH works for me okay because I don't use flash so much.
Are you running on FreeBSD 7.2?

[ericturgeon]

I run 8.0 RC3 and 8.0 amd64 RC3. I gonna switch to 8 release next week.
