I'd like to chime in here and say there is nothing special to get this
configuration to work. Download the Windows version of Firefox and install
it via Wine, then download the Windows version of Flash for Firefox and
install that with Wine. Once you do that, you have Flash in Firefox using
Wine. Like has been said, Wine is far from perfect, but this works great
until a native Flash can be made for FreeBSD.

I'm not at my box right now, but it went something like this:
0. Install wine ( emulators/wine )
1. Download firefox for windows (
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html )
2. Run: wine "Firefox Setup 3.0.exe"
3. Complete the installer
4. To run firefox you need to do something like: wine "C:/Program
Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox.exe" (I forget the exact path / command
name)
5. Navigate to the adobe flash download page ( use goole or something
) and download the flash installer for windows.
6. When the download is complete, run it ( should be able to do this
from the download manager in firefox )
7. Complete the flash installer ( this will require you to close
firefox, so do that )
8. Start firefox again (see the wine firefox.exe command from above)
9. Create a script to start firefox under wine since the command is so ugly.
I might write up some better instructions when I have the time, but I
really don't have a good place to put them.
I tried this before and have a bad luck of not having working audio on
flash, but today with new wine and FF3 it works.
Btw there is a small nasty problem copy/paste from wine app to native
apps does not work. Ideas how to workaround this?
