Hi,
The above update to firefox.i386 on the x86_64
architecture has broken the acrobat and java plugins.
(using acroread 7.0.9 and Sun Java 6u3)
Clicking on a PDF file causes firefox to exit immediately
and launching webpages that require a java plugin no longer works.
If I revert to firefox-1.5.0.12-0.3.el4.i386 everything works as expected.
The reason we're using the i386 version on an x86_64 arch is
to get the various plugins working that have no x86_64 equivalent.
I can get around the PDF issue by not using the plugin and just
loading the file externally in xpdf/acroread but we need
the java plugin to work too.
cheers,
Ronnie

Hi,
I only use xpdf, so I don't have this problem but I just
noticed that I can't print any longer with this release of
firefox, the generated postscript beeing very strange. I first
thought that was an UTF8 problem, but I got the same behavior
with iso-8859-1 encoding.
So I re-install the previous release (1.5.0.12-0.3.el4) and I
can print afresh.
Does anybody see the same problem ?

Hi,
Can you check and see if the latest firefox errata fixed this problem.
Thanks
Troy
