I had this problem too. This was on x86_64 however, but I installed 32-bit firefox and sun java-plugin and had problems getting it to work until I figured out that I must manually remove classpath-webplugin. I thought classpath-webplugin was only installed by default on 64-bit installations, but apparently it's also done on 32-bit - it doesn't do much good anywhere - but on 32-bit it's extra problematic. I support Benji's proposed resolutions. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
