Re: Both archs version rpm are installed during update? - related firefox plugin issues.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



That certainly explains my firefox plugin problem. yum list | grep firefox tells me I have both the i386 and x86_64 versions of firefox installed - but how do I tell gnome to use the i386 version?

My ignorance never ceases to amaze me...;-)

I was interested to see that Firefox java and flash plugins aren't

Does this explain why flash and/or java plugins aren't working on my
Centos 5 x86_64 installation. If I go to (say) you-tube - it tells me I
don't have the latest flash player - or don't have java enabled. If I
follow their instructions on installing them - it tells me they are
already installed.

Anyone else found this - and found a solution?


Yes - use the i386 version of Firefox and the plugins will work.  I
use the i386 version of SeaMonkey as I had the same problems with the
x86_64 bit version, and they work fine.
