Hello Questions,

I wanted to run Mozilla FireBird 6.1.6 under Linux emulation so
that I could use the Flash plugin.  I installed linux_base-6.1_6
from the 4-stable packages directory and downloaded FireBird.  But
FireBird required a later version of Linux emulation (7.???) that
I could only find in the 5-stable directory.

Will Linux emulation be updated for FreeBSD 4-stable?  I assume
I can't install the latest version since it's apparently for 5.0
and later.

I tried the Gnu version of Flash (`libflash-0.4_10') and the
appropriate mozilla-flash plugin but it doesn't seem to work.

Thanks,

-Rob
