Try this:

cd /usr/ports/net/firefox/
make install clean

cd /usr/ports/www/flashplugin-firefox/
make install clean

cd /usr/src/libexec/rtld-elf/
make clean all install

cd /usr/ports/devel/linuxthreads
make install clean

cd /usr/ports/www/linuxpluginwrapper
make install clean

cd /usr/ports/print/acroread/
make install clean

vi /etc/libmap.conf

Add the lines:

# Flash with Firefox
[/usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so]
libpthread.so.0 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
libdl.so.2 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
libz.so.1 libz.so.2
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 liblstdc++.so.4
libm.so.6 libm.so
libc.so.6 pluginwrapper/flash6.so

# Acrobat with Firefox
[/usr/local/Acrobat5/Browsers/intellinux/nppdf.so]
libpthread.so.0 pluginwrapper/acrobat.so
libdl pluginwrapper/acrobat.so
libc.so.6 pluginwrapper/acrobat.so 


Now you have flash  and acrobat as bonus ;)

Good luck

Thank you for these instructions.  I was hoping to find a native flash 
player, since I am currently not running the Linux compatibility layer. 
 But maybe I have no choice.  In any case these instructions will be 
very helpful if I decide to turn on compatibility.

Thanks.
Good luck

I though that www/flashplugin-firefox *was* native, and didn't require
any of those other bits.  [If it did require them, the ports system
would be set up to build them first.]

In my previous post I failed to notice Z.Z. was referencing 
flashplugin-firefox.  I just saw linux-this and linux-that.

Well... as far as I know it is native.  So I went to 
/usr/ports/www/flashplugin-firefox and did a 'make install clean'.  I 
had heard bad things but thought I'd try it anyways.  It installed it.. 
Firefox recognizes it, and will display a flash app.  But it then either 
does not respond to clicks on the flash app (firefox is still responsive 
though)... or it totally kills firefox.

Maybe I need to follow through on Zlatozar's instructions.

There is a port called flashplugin-firefox, using libflash. I tried it
but is was prone to crashing on amd64, on 5.3-RELEASE-p4.
I agree... after using it this evening (flashplugin-firefox with no 
other supporting ports) it has proven very unstable.  A few sites 
worked... but that was definitely the exception.  Many failed either 
proving unresponsive or by pulling firefox down completely.

Z.Z. suggested a few additional linux ports.  I may give them a try as well.
