Hi
I installed seamonkey 2.0.2 in Debian Lenny 64 bit, and it runs, so-----
is it both 32 and 64 bit compatible.
However it will not run the 64 bit libflashplayer.so file downloaded
from adobe in the plugins folder as the 32 bit seamonkey will with the
32 bit file.
I then tried the 32 bit libflashplayer.so, and seamonkey promptly crashed.
I looked on the seamonkey website but nothing terribly helfpul revealed
itself.
So I wonder how to get 64 bit flash working, or even 64 bit java going
or is this still a work in progress. Would symlinks help.
Any non MS folk have any ideas I wonder?

The plugin from the Adobe website is 32 bit only.  To get the 64 bit plugin:

wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/f/flashplugin-nonfree/flashplugin-nonfree_2.8_amd64.deb

When you install the above package, all it does is download the 64 bit version of Flash Player from Macromedia.com. IIRC, the tar ball will be in /var/cache. Extract libflashplayer.so from there and put it in your plugins directory (i.e.: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins).
