Enabling Linux Binary Compatibility

Before we can install the Linux Flash plugin, we'll need to enable the Linuxulator and install a basic set of Linux Libraries.

1. Edit the file /etc/rc.conf (this file is the central configuration file for all of FreeBSD) linux_enable="YES"

2. You will also need to mount the /proc file system. Edit the file /etc/fstab (This file contains the list of file systems that can be mounted automatically) linproc /usr/compat/linux/proc linprocfs rw 0 0
3. Finally, we need to load the kernel module and mount linprocfs: kldload linux
mount /usr/compat/linux/proc

Installing Firefox and Flash

1. Install a Linux Base (Fedora 10) pkg_add -r linux_base-f10
2. Install Firefox pkg_add -r firefox or cd /usr/ports/www/firefox
make all install clean
3. Add the netscape plugin wrapper pkg_add -r nspluginwrapper
4. Install the Adobe Flash Plugin 10.2 cd /usr/ports/www/linux-f10-flashplugin10
make all install clean
5. wrap the plugin: (make sure you do this as the regular user, doing it as root does not seem to work properly) nspluginwrapper -i /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-f10-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
6. Start firefox, visit about:plugins and make sure the flash plugin shows up.
