Likewise.  That's FreeBSD 7.1 or later, native Firefox 3, 
linux_base-fc4, linux-flashplugin9, and nspluginwrapper.

Or just run nspluginwrapper -a -i as your web browser user.  The only 
link I had to create by hand was for Java.

npviewer.bin leaves core dumps in my home directory way too often, and 
often makes the browser do nothing for seconds at a time.

gnash runs better but still doesn't quite do all the Flash stuff.  Maybe 
next release.
