Out of curiosity where do we stand with Adobe Acrobat Reader for Solaris x86?

On a regular JDS session I can bring up Mozilla and hit some page that
suggests that I get the Adobe Acrobat plugin.

I wish we would ship a native GNOME browser (ie epiphany, or galeon) as the default browser for JDS, rather than Firefox, which offers a rather horrid experience to users when it comes to opening files[1]. Then users would be offered to have the already installed ggv open PDFs. (Though, I prefer xpdf).

Firefox is a desperately *poor* choice of default browser for non-technical users..

1. I think there may be "integrate better with GNOME" patches or modules available for Firefox, not sure how much they improve things.
