For the Firefox plugins, I symlink to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins. The package installer may require /usr/lib/firefox/browser/plugins/. $HOME/.mozilla/plugins will also work if plugins are installed there. I noticed that I got 0 byte downloads with 27.0 and 27.0.1 running on /hipster even when starting in --safe-mode. 26.0 works. I found a couple of but reports related to 0 byte; one a recent one for the Webapp Runtime on x86 MacOS X. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=965414 After reading these emails I rebooted into a9, moved the 26.0 firefox directory to firefox-26.0 and extracted 28.0. Files are downloaded as expected. Hmmm? --Fred Kimball _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
