I'm also working on an update for 8.X Many thanks, Marc, for this information. I was not aware (shame on me) that the Handbook does treat this big problem as well. You cannot imagine (nobody can imagine) the number of hours I've spent since ages to get Firefox and Flash9 working on FreeBSD-stable. So, this morning, I've started the n-th trial. Bad luck. It doesn't work anymore for the following two reasons: The first reason is the linux-pango vulnerability encountered with nspluginwrapper. Okey, I knew that already (see http://www.freebsdnews.net/2008/11/04/flash-9-for-freebsd-71-howto/). Overriding the problem (reluctantly) with ``setenv DISABLE_VULNERABILITIES yes'' brought me to the second reason which is even worse. Portmaster is unable to fetch install_flash_player_9.tar.gz and I cannot find the file manually. Seems to have disappeared from earth. I don't know how long I'll be able to resist against buying a MacBook for my wife who does want to see videos ``like anybody else''. Of coarse, this does not mean that everybody has a macintosh:-) By the way, I've tried Ubuntu, I've tried PC_BSD. Not really satisfactory. There is no alternative to FreeBSD.

The Flash player(s) thus embedded are not very stable, and can crash or hang with multiple opens, or browser tab embedding the player(s) being closed. In all honesty, linux-flash has not been really stable, even on Linux, since flash7. That said, I have had good results with flash9 and nspluginwrapper. I also use linux_base-f8 and carefully updated all of my linux emulation mode ports to the f8 version (when available). I think that covers all of them EXCEPT linux-nvu and the closed source third-party apps like linux-realplayer and linux-flashplugin9. Also, be sure to add the define lines to /etc/make.conf as described in the installation of linux_base-f8. # portversion | grep linux- then, for each item: portupgrade -o /usr/ports/DIR/linux-f8-PORT/ linux-PORT Where DIR is the ports directory and PORT is the pat of the port name following 'linux-'. Note that you really need to do these in dependency tree order or you will get install errors. Use 'portupgrade -fn linux-\*' to get the order. Log into the system under your normal account (not root) and run nspluginwrapper to install the plugins that need to be wrapped. nspluginwrapper -i /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so nspluginwrapper -i /usr/local/lib/linux-mozilla/plugins/nphelix.so Restart firefox3. -- R.

There are two cases here. The first one is resolving issue. I'm not sure if all the needed changes were done to RELENG_7 to let resolving work with linux_base-f10. If any linux port/application that uses resolving (i.e. www/linux-firefox) work at RELENG_7 then an MFC has been done. But that issue should not influence flashplugin. The second one (an absence of some syscalls) will not be resolved at RELENG_7 due to an ABI changes. I'm not aware of linux applications affected though. May be it's print/acroread9 but I'm not sure. As for the original question. I don't use flash so can't be very helpful here.

status of flash9/flash10 support in RELENG_7 ?
Does anyone know what is the status of flash9 or flash10 in RELENG_7 ? Following the thread of a couple of months ago, i tried to: - remove all linux-* ports - set the following in /etc/make.conf OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=f8 OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS=f8 - set the following in /etc/sysctl.conf compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16 - set the following in /etc/fstab linproc /usr/compat/linux/proc linprocfs rw 0 0 - reinstall linux_base-f8-8_11 - reinstall linux-flashplugin-10.0r22 (which in turn brings in the relevant linux-f8-* ports) - also install nspluginwrapper and create a firefox plugin - upgrade firefox to firefox-3.5,1 (native), just in case - run firefox with limit stacksize 4megabytes (or variants) as recommended to avoid npviewer growing/not dying This was done on 3 different machines (one laptop with a centrino, 2 desktops with AMD X2 dual core running in i386 mode) with mixed [in]success. On one machine thing started working well, but on the other two they did not (the various packages were of course slightly disaligned) and while trying to replicate the configuration i also broke the good one without figuring out why. Symptoms are that on certain sites or actions (e.g. switch to full screen on youtube videos) i get firefox freezing like this 22381 luigi 13 960 82580K 57484K ucond 1 0:00 0.20% firefox-bin 22413 luigi 1 970 72920K 33448K futex 1 0:00 0.20% npviewer.bin 22414 luigi 1 970 72920K 33448K futex 1 0:00 0.20% npviewer.bin and recovering control (but no video) after 10+seconds I also get a lot of the following weak_unref warnings with various addresses (firefox-bin:22381): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: IA__g_object_weak_unref: couldn't find weak ref 0x297ba9f0(0x2a10d110) (but not sure how related is this, because it happens even without a flash plugin). I have also tried flash9 instead of flash10, o fc10 instead of fc8, all with similar results. Is there a recipe for a working flas9 or flash10 operation ? cheers luigi ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
