linux-flashplugin-9 && firefox-3.0.7,1 does not play in -CURRENT

Hello,

I followed this guiding
http://crnl.org/blog/2008/11/01/flash-9-for-freebsd-71
(which worked fine for me in 71R) and have installed the required ports
for this in a recent -CURRENT:

linux-flashplugin-9.0r159
firefox-3.0.7,1
linux_base-f8-8_11
nspluginwrapper-1.2.2_2

as well compat.linux.osrelease is correctly set to:
compat.linux.osrelease: 2.6.16

In firefox the flashplugin is visible with 'about:plugins' and when I go
to a page with a life stream, for example
http://www.telesurtv.net/noticias/canal/senalenvivo.php
it does not complain about not having Flash 9 installed; it shows a grey
area where the life channel is supposed to be presented but nothing more;

any idea what could be the problem with this in -CURRENT (as I said in
71R it works nicely)? I have no hald configured, is this a must?

Thanks

	matthias
