I don't know about "safer", but firefox 32 bit plugins work better for me in genuine 32 bit firefox with no nspluginwrapper. Of course you can get 32 bit firefox in a 64 bit install, but it is less trouble to get it in a 32 bit install since there isn't a 64 bit version confusing things :-). Similarly, a 32 bit mplayer (from rpmfusion repos) will be able to access the windows codecs stashed in /usr/lib/codecs, if you dig up content for /usr/lib/codecs and you have funky enough multimedia to play that you need the windows codecs. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
