Read these instructions from Arjan van Leeuwen. It works perfectly !!
============================ Hi Henry, others, As of the latest weekly development release of Opera (see http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/), it's now possible to use any Linux plugin in the native Opera for FreeBSD version, including Flash and Acrobat Reader. The feature will be included in the upcoming Opera 9.1. For now, it'll require some actions to get it to work, but if you'd like to experiment with this, this might help: 0) Make sure you have the x11/linux-xorg-libs port installed. 1) Download and extract the latest weekly release for both FreeBSD and Linux: http://snapshot.opera.com/unix/Weekly-507/intel-freebsd/opera-9.10-20061205.4-shared-qt.i386.freebsd-en-507.tar.bz2 http://snapshot.opera.com/unix/Weekly-507/intel-linux/opera-9.10-20061205.1-static-qt.i386-en-507.tar.bz2 (FreeBSD package is for FreeBSD 6.x and requires Qt installed) 2) Copy operapluginwrapper from the Linux package over to the FreeBSD package: $ cd opera-9.10-20061205.4-shared-qt.i386.freebsd-en-507 $ cp ../opera-9.10-20061205.1-static-qt.i386-en-507/plugins/operapluginwrapper plugins/ Now, if you want to run the Opera weekly directly from the package without installing (will use a fresh, empty profile, recommended): 3) Copy libnpp.so within the FreeBSD package to a new location: $ cp plugins/libnpp.so bin/libnpp.so 4) Run Opera $ ./opera If instead you want to install Opera for all users (will overwrite existing installations and use your default profile, not recommended with development releases like this): 3) Run install $ ./install.sh 4) Copy libnpp.so manually to the Opera binary directory $ cp plugins/libnpp.so /usr/local/share/opera/bin/ 5) Run Opera $ /usr/local/bin/opera The actions described here do not affect Java; you'll still be able to run Java applets with the native version of Java (such as diablo-jdk or diablo-jre). We appreciate any reports on whether this feature works as expected (or doesn't at all). On Tue, 21 Nov 2006 15:31:30 +0100, Henry Lenzi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks for you support.

You can post on the forum if you have more problems with this. It could be that you're using a package that's compiled for a different version of FreeBSD; use the .4 package if you're on FreeBSD 6. > 2) the Flash plugin.

I don't know about that, but you could file a bug at http://bugs.opera.com/.
