Could it be that the plug-ins are disbaled for that version of Firefox? I could be wrong of course :-( I can't check on my SuSE tinat the moment because I'm having to rebuild it from the ground up (replacement mobo). In Win 2000 running Firefox 1.5.0.1 if I click on the Tools tab (top toolbar) then on extensions it should tell you whether the given extensions are compatible with that version. I currently have only one that is not compatible and that is Star Downloader.

I would suggest ugrading Firefox and then try upgrading the extensions. It is an easier task with Firefox since 1.5 was released.

Thanks very much for responding. I seem to have resolved the problem by attempting to just get the acroread plug-in working. I disabled the acroread plug-in and closed firefox, then I re-installed the acroread plug-in (for the second time). I then re-enabled the acroread plug-in, closed firefox, re-booted and all of my plug-ins now work. It seems very odd to me that just by re-installing one plug-in, all of them would suddenly start working. Mike

I recently upgraded my computer from 9.2 to 10.0 (not oss). Upgraded is probably the wrong word, I did a clean install of SUSE 10. I'm using Firefox 1.0.7.

Since installing 10, it seems that the Firefox plug-ins no longer work properly. When opening up flash web sites I am always prompted to download flash. Flash is already installed. Also, when opening up a PDF in the browser, Adobe no longer opens inside Firefox. The plug-in is installed and enabled, however Firefox just sits there and displays an empty page. I even went so far as to re-install the Acrobat plugin and it told me that it was already installed.

I did not have this problem with 9.2. Plug-ins just worked. Can anyone offer me some advice on how to resolve this problem?

Thank you!

Good luck. --

I reported the same problem under SuSE 9.0 and Acrobat. It works fine on 3 of my boxes and has your problem on the 4th. There are no version differences that I can find. It just sits and hangs opening a PDF. I've tried upgrading everything I can think of, with no effect. Jim
