## Installing flash player on firefox.

The Flash plugin is distributed by Adobe in **binary form only**. Adobe does not provide a native DragonFlyBSD plugin, but there is a Linux plugin which you can use under Linux emulation. Linux emulation software is installed from **pkgsrc** and is tested to be working fine on x86 Platform. The steps are

### Configure Linux Support

    # echo "linux_load=yes" >> /boot/loader.conf
    # echo "linux_enable=yes" >> /etc/rc.conf
    # echo "proc  /compat/linux/proc  linprocfs  rw  0  0" >> /etc/fstab

**Reboot DragonFly** ( not necessarry but easier for new users )  so that Linux Emulation is loaded to the kernel and configured correctly.

### Install multimedia/libflashsupport from pkgsrc. 

    # cd /usr/pkgsrc/multimedia/libflashsupport
    # bmake package

This will get you all packages needed for Linux Emulation. Currently the Linux Emulation package installs software from [Suse 10]( http://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/ftp.opensuse.org/discontinued/10.0/suse/i586/) distribution. You could see the list of packages installed using pkg_info.

### Install www/nspluginwrapper 

This will allow DragonFly to use the Linux Binary Flash Plugin

    # cd /usr/pkgsrc/www/nspluginwrapper
    # bmake package

### Install multimedia/ns-flash

This is the Linux Flash Plugin itself.

    # cd /usr/pkgsrc/multimedia/ns-flash
    # bmake NO_CHECKSUM=yes package

You can check if the Flash plugin is installed right by.

    # /usr/pkg/bin/nspluginwrapper --list
    /usr/pkg/lib/netscape/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
      Original plugin: /usr/pkg/lib/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so
      Wrapper version string: 1.2.2
    /usr/pkg/lib/netscape/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
      Original plugin: /usr/pkg/lib/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so
      Wrapper version string: 1.2.2

Don't worry if it is listed twice as above.

Now Start Firefox and type "**about:plugins**" in the address bar and you should find the flash plugins listed as [shown in this Picture](http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~sgeorge/PICs/flash-plugin-in-firefox.png).
