Edit #2 : Found it! See here

Edit #3 : Here's another link:

PC-BSD FAQ's - Using Flash, realplayer and acroread with Firefox (Yeah, it's pc-bsd, but it still has some good FreeBSD info). I'm going to try this on my fresh PC-BSD install and I'll let you know how it goes.

  1. Strange - I just tried it and it worked for me. It should be sending you to a text page. The instructions in the first link seem to be pretty RELEASE-agnostic, but I have to admit I haven't tried them. My vanilla FreeBSD box is a text-only box, while my graphical BSD is PCBSD. But I might try to see if I can get it to work. But then again, I can't even get Flash to work in Firefox on my Windows box!-(
