I can confirm that: I also got the gnash CVS version compiled on FreeBSD (by
manually setting CFLAGS and LDFLAGS to include gtkglext, SDL, ...) and the
standalone player works just fine, but the plugin doesn't show up in
about:plugins. The only thing that happens when I go to about:plugins is
that gnash-dbg.log gets created (with 0 bytes size).
The same source code works when copied over to a Linux installation and
compiled/installed there.
Sigh... This is a little difficult to debug remotely since I don't
have access to a FreeBSD machine. (and it failed to install under Qemu).
Guess it's time to dig an old PC out of the shed and try an install on a
screaming 133Mhz box... My guess is there is a subtle problem with
graphics libraries. With a Gtk2 build of Firefox, you want to get the
gtk-x11-2.0 libraries, I had a similar problem once where I was getting
the 1.0 libraries at runtime, and got a blank screen.
I need to fix the zero sized gnash-dbg.log. You get that now by
default, but since nothing it written without the "-w" option, it's
always empty. Writing to the file is a performance hit, so for now it's
optional.
