i just manually installed Firefox 2.0.0.4 from source. It works fine except but not "plug ins enabled" . For example I hv installed Adobe Flash Player, restart my firefox and it doesn't work. The same thing happen to java plug ins. Any idea what file should i edit ti make it work?
And... bad thing : the MeasureIt and ColorZilla doesn't support Firefox 2.0.4 yet, am i right?
Hello Hans, Installing from source is fine, as long as we can bear the hassle of configuring it correctly. For flash and java plugin, you must tell firefox where it can find it, in default rpm installation it's on /usr/lib/browser-plugins/libflashplayer.so (for flash). The reason why installing manually from source is tend to be "not working" out of the box, because by default most of the time the path will be assumed to /usr/local. So you must make the adjustment there. -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | Linux tutorial http://linux2.arinet.org 9:50am up 2:41, 2.6.18.2-34-default GNU/Linux Let's use OpenOffice. http://www.openoffice.org
