The plugin works fine now, but i still have one more question regarding flash player. Does the linux-flashplugin7 port really require linux-base ? I don't relay like the idea of installing linux-base and the linux kernel module, and I've installed linuxpluginwrapper , I've tryed to manually extract the libflashplayer.so and flashplayer.xpt , place them in /usr/local/lib/firefox/plugins , make the required settings to /etc/libmap.conf ... and what do i see ... it's working. So is it really necessary the dependency on linux-base ? Commenting out USE_LINUX=yes in the port's Makefile does the job, and the plugin keeps working fine. If it's required could it be a OPTION ? ( i don't like the idea of installing files that are not managed by a port either ) Iulian M. http://www.erata.net -- Cruickshank's Law of Committees: If a committee is allowed to discuss a bad idea long enough, it will inevitably decide to implement the idea simply because so much work has already been done on it.
