I posed a similar question on this list a short time ago. Right
now, the only 'Flash' working on either Linux or native is Flash 7,
which does not work on many sites. To get Flash 9, you need to use
wine under freebsd and install the windows version of Firefox. I
have been told that this solution works fine "out of the box" on
FreeBSD 6.2 but I have not yet confirmed.
Works right out of the box for all versions of FreeBSD > 6 I just
did it on a 8-Current machine doing the following port installs in
this order:
firefox
linux-flashplugin7
acroread7
after you install acroread run "nspluginwrapper -v -a -i".
So did I. When I run firefox then, I get an error message as follows:
freebsdangel# firefox
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/libflashplayer.so [Shared object
"libdl.so.2" not found, required by "libflashplayer.so"]
But the library is existing:
freebsdangel# find / -name libdl.so.2
/usr/compat/linux/lib/libdl.so.2
freebsdangel#
And even adjusting the path does not help:
freebsdangel# setenv PATH "${PATH}:/usr/compat/linux/lib"
The result is the same:
So basically the question is:
How can I tell FreeBSD where to find the requested lib??
Did you do it from packages or ports?
From ports

you are looking for LD_LIBRARY_PATH
You should do this with ldconfig so its there all the time; but use the
linux compat one, not the freebsd base system one.
The port should have done this for you.
cat /compat/linux/etc/ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/local/lib

Let me ask this again, both for my own use, and for those folks (like me) who have googled this without success so far: if I wanted, as far as possible, to stay with FreeBSD-native apps (but willing to do whatever it takes, IF its the only way to success) how does someone get to having a browser run on FreeBSD, with the main requirement, that it run Flash. Oh. One more qualification (I can get a bit picky, I guess). I notice that there's a port for flashplugin9, not just 7. Is there ANY setup that allows flash9, not just flash7? The only limitation I keep active is, I don't run MS software. No Windows. I suppose, if it's the best way, I could even choose Wine (does this make me a Wino?) 'Preciate this, I'm anxious to get started. If I'm forced to it, I have a great amount of disk, I would give as much disk as it needs, to get this, I just need to overcome old prejudices over using too much disk.
