There are a few in ports. Though I was hoping (via this thread) to get
opinions on which were good. Presently, I'm experimenting
(unsuccessfully) with gnash.
I'm read to volunteer.
What is gnash? (Or should I just poke around!)
Actually, after a bit more poking.... gnash seems to be all there is
(someone please correct me). All the other projects appear to have a
common source.... and many of those devs are moving to gnash?
gnash can be found at :
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/
and there is a port:
graphics/gnash
I've installed the port.... yet got nothing useful out of it yet. The
project's goal AFAIK is to produce a firefox flash plugin. Supposedly
the port and plugin do work (to some extent) on FreeBSD.... I'm just
having no luck yet.
...I've
seen the GNU shock/flash/<<whatever>> port and figured it
was the only thing remotely resembling the flashwave stuff.
--Um, I should say, straight away, that audio/vidio is

systems analysis, and (very old) driver hacking.
What are the other ports you know of that we could leverage
off?
thanks,
