xorg-server-1.5.3_7, /usr/ports/UPDATING, mouse

Well, recently I deinstalled all of my third party apps . . . long story (some of which is documented on this list) . . . but the short story is that some were added via the ports tree and others via pkg_add. When it came time to portupdate, I was having problems and it was brought to my attention

The last couple of days I've been running portupgrade -av and am to the point where I'd like to move onto something else, but there is one package that won't upgrade . . . xorg-server.

gnash and ff3

Hi, I have 7-1 RELEASE running with up-to-date packages, including firefox3. I also have gnash-0.8.3 and mozplugger-1.10.2. I'm confused as to why gnash and mozplugger are not automatically enabled and/or used by ff3. That is, ff claims not to have any plug-ins. I have the same set-up on an oBSD
