Hi all,
I'm running 10.1 x_86-64 on my laptop. The only gripe I have is with certain media apps. In particular, the lack of x_86-64 builds of the Flashplayer plugin and the windows media codecs.
So, I was wondering if it would be possible to have 64bit and 32bit versions of the affected apps installed. They would be Firefox and Mplayer, presumably with all their associated libraries. How complex would that end up being?
Any comments welcome.

Hi Dylan,
I am not sure whether this is of any help, but there was a post here on June 3 about the beagle plugin not working with firefox. Here is the post:
"[suse-amd64] firefox-beagle SuSE 10.1" from 6/3/2006 1:11 PM
Hi,
I found that beagle-firefox is not working properly on my 64 bit System. The reason is that the browser extension is installed in /usr/lib64, but firefox is a 32 bit application.
Therefore I had to da a sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/browser-extensions /usr/lib/browser-extensions to get the beagle plugin working on my system.

That fixed the beagle plugin on my 64-bit laptop and I am wondering whether that is the way to get other plugins going like Flashplayer?
Cheers,
Guenter
Cheers, that fixes firefox/flash... Dylan -- "The man who strikes first admits that his ideas have given out." (Chinese Proverb) -- "The man who strikes first admits that his ideas have given out." (Chinese Proverb)
