Both have totem > installed. ok. presuming that you do in fact have what you believe you do, you can verify that you have all of what you should have. look in your firefox profile directory and open "pluginreg.dat" with text editor to see if what it claims is used is shown in what locate finds. run a find for 'totem'. use "locate totem|less" to see what you have under lib files. mozplugger is not available for this linux install and at this time i do not see need to compile source for it. i have looked at; http://mozplugger.mozdev.org/ from what i read and interpret it, i am not sure, tho it maybe that, mozplugger may not be in what you should see in 'applications' for wav files, but what is used to play/view files should be.. i may be in error of how i understand it. also, check what is shown in link; http://fredrik.hubbe.net/plugger.html > I'm fairly certain it is. i stand corrected. i was going by what is available thru firefox add-ons page. 'mozplugger' is for linux only and would not be listed. -- peace out. tc.hago, g . **** in a free world without fences, who needs gates. ** help microsoft stamp out piracy - give linux to a friend today. ** to mess up a linux box, you need to work at it. to mess up an ms windows box, you just need to *look* at it. ** The installation instructions stated to install Windows 2000 or better.
