Sigh, if I'd realized how difficult it would become, I'd have documented what I did--at the time, I think linuxpluginwrapper worked and I didn't pay attention. Ahhhh--ok, I didn't realize that I'd done this--(as I said, it was a long time ago, and I just looked now--I always start it with a key binding from fluxbox, and had simply forgotten that I had done it this way.). For some reason I didn't use the port, I simply downloaded the source and built it in my home directory. That is, I downloaded the firefox source code for Linux, and as user, just ran the install script. After that, flash just worked, and has continued to work. In my home/firefox (NOT .firefox--as I said I just did this in my $HOME directory) I have a plugins directory--it just has a symlink to to /usr/X11R6/lib/lib/linux-flashplugin7/libflashplayer.so Sorry for such haphapzard information here, I use flash for an online pingpong game and to check TV guide listings and that's it, so I hadn't payed much attention. I set it up quite awhile ago. - -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Drusilla: How do you feel about eternal life?
