Well, two caveats here -- I did it on RH 6.2 and didn't use the
"official" FP extensions. I used an alternate version I found on
Fresh Meat which didn't have to be running as "root" thus avoiding
the security holes of running your Apache as "root."
That being said, it can be done, but I was only partially successful.
There was a problem with the "fp_hover.clas" file not working, but
other than that it was a successful install.
