Re: firefox 2.0 and flash 7

2006-11-04 Thread Michael S
This machine is actually at work and I will try what
you're suggesting on Monday; but the funny part is
that the java plugin sits in the same directory as the
two symbolic links to flash and while java works,
flash doesn't.

Thanks for your suggestion.

 See the latest

 I have a working 6.1 / Firefox 2 / Flash 7 (plus
 flashblock which is 
 great) but I can't access it at the mo. Post again
 if you still can't 
 get it working.

 Check to see if firefox is now located in
 /usr/local/lib. If it is, you need 
 to change your Flash symlinks from
 /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_links 
 to /usr/local/lib/browser_links.

Just don't remove the old symlinks in /usr/X11r6/lib/browser_plugins, if you 
take them out, firefox won't open. Put in the new ones 
in /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins and you should be good to go.
