I use this Norwegian mirror: ftp://ftp.no.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/ The procedure seemed to be fairly intelligent, with portinstall searching /All and /Latest and sometimes going into packages-6.2-release if some package could not be found. But it needs to said that many installs failed with missing packages. At any rate, I downloaded gentoo, worker, xnview and some other things with portinstall -PPR.

As I said some posts ago, I have struggled with this problem myself. And then, after installing some packages with PKG_SITES set to packages-6-stable, flash suddenly started working. So it's a fair guess that it might work for you too if you upgraded or installed something from packages-6-stable.

I've never even heard of it before today. I believe you can use the ports system as is. In theory at least you should get the same or newer packages that way. But I doubt that you need to rebuild the browser and plugins. The point is that I used portinstall -PPR some time between January 20 and 24. And it is probably the -R that has sucked in some updated library. I see a couple of Linux libraries last updated on January 22. Packages with linux in their name on my machine comprise the following: %pkg_info -Ex linux linux-expat-1.95.8 linux-flashplugin-7.0r69 linux-fontconfig-2.2.3_5 linux-xorg-libs-6.8.2_5 linux_base-fc-4_9 linuxpluginwrapper-20051113_6 You could check whether you have the same versions. And we could make other such checks if anyone has an idea what to look for. But it needs to be said that I also downloaded other things in those four days.

Since I have had serious problems getting even Flash7 to work, following instructions found here at the list, could you please summarize the steps for getting the older Flash version running? I'm begining to suspect something more is needed than the information I've found. Do e.g. I have to run firefox under Linux emulation? I think it is not a matter of detailing steps. I have used the steps in question many times over in order to get linux-flashplugin7 working with native Firefox, with no luck whatsoever. However, after installing 6.2-RELEASE, I have added some packages with portinstall -PP, and for some reason, linux-flashplugin7 now works on my system. I suspect this happened because my PKG_SITES is set to ftp:.../i386/packages-6-stable/. Most likely, some library was updated, and this did the trick. Wish I knew precisely which update that was. -- Tore ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If the answer is yes, no, then I will file a bug report to have linux-firefox added to the run-dependency list. linuxpluginwrapper doesn't support flash9 yet, so no, you can't use it with any native browser. There is a standalone flash player I believe, but not in the plugin package. I wouldn't add a run dependency on linux-firefox though. The plugin can be used with other browsers as well. A pkg-message would be nice though. And it needs a run dependency on linux-gtk2. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

But it does, in native Firefox, at least. Never seen or heard of it working in Konqueror.
