is there an operational flash/shockwave player?
Hi folks: I noticed that while firefox is itself a 64 bit binary, that the libflash and other bits for flash/shockwave are currently 32 bit binaries. [landman@balto:~] 122 >file /usr/lib/browser-plugins/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/browser-plugins/libflashplayer.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), stripped I don't think that Mozilla has a built in thunking layer: are their firefox/mozilla plugins for 64 bit SuSE and linux in general to handle these? Or will I need to revert to a 32 bit compiled browser?

You'll need to use a 32-bit browser. No 64-bit plugins yet. John
