Hi there, I have native firefox with flash 7 working fine on FreeBSD 6.2, with java and adobe reader. I am guessing it should be pretty much the same for FBSD 7. # Short and sweet summary: install www/firefox install print/acroread7 install java/diablo-jdk15 install www/linux-flashplugin7 kldload linux echo "none /compat/linux/proc linprocfs rw 0 0" >> /etc/fstab mount -a echo "linux_enable=\"YES\"" >> /etc/rc.conf nspluginwrapper -v -a -i Hope this at least gives pointers as to what to do in FreeBSD 7.
