A 32 > bit wrapper to run 32 bit plugins seems completely > idiotic :-). There's more to it than that. Such as running *NON-LINUX* 32 bit plug-ins on your 32-bit Linux OS. "nspluginwrapper is an Open Source compatibility plugin for Netscape 4 (NPAPI) plugins. That is, it enables you to use plugins on platforms they were not built for. For example, you can use the Adobe Flash plugin on Linux/x86_64, NetBSD and FreeBSD platforms." e.g. Before we had Linux versions of the Flash player, people could use things *like* the above to run the Windows Flash player software. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.23.1-10.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
