Re: flashplayer plugin on firefox

You will find the help you need there (search for flash in the pages, look at
the first occurence) :

http://forum.hardware.fr/hardwarefr/OSAlternatifs/Topic-FreeBSD-FreeBSD-released-sujet-53327-1.htm

short translation from french to english:

Macromedia does not give any flash plugin for FreeBSD. You need to use the linux
plugin. This method should work with Opera and Firefox.

First install linux-flashplugin6 (in /usr/ports/www/linux-flashplugin6).
Second, install linuxpluginwrapper (NOT flashpluginwrapper...)
Then copy /usr/local/share/examples/linuxpluginwrapper/libmap.conf-FreeBSD6 to
/etc/libmap.conf (and edit as you want)

then cd  and the two ln :)

Note that flash 7 seems to be known as buggy. I installed flash 6 with that
method yesterday, and it works perfectly on firefox 1.0.7 and FreeBSD
6.0-RELEASE.

Do not forget to link the files!

Regards.


Hope this is correct for you, and hope that was clear :)

 hi all
 i searched the web to installed flashplugin on my bsd. i saw such data
 in a page :
 
 # 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
 
 everything was fine because i installed linux-flashplugin6 (and also
 7) and also did pluginwrapper.
 but in that page it was said that the above should be put in
 libmap.conf under /etc/.
 then i search my bsd and saw no libmap.conf :(
 is this something weird ? do i have to have libmap.conf ? or it comes
 with something else ?
 please help me ...

If you dont have a /etc/libmap.conf file, you have to make it yourself,
and fill it with the information above.
It tells the dynamic linker wich executable, the name between [ ],
which dynamic library file it has to substitute for the library file it asks.
So in your case, if the executable:
 
/usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so

asks for the dynamic library: 

libpthread.so.0

the dynamic linker loads instead the library:

pluginwrapper/flash6.so

It is very handy if you have to use an old version of an executable
with a latest version of a library.
