Hi

what package do I need to install to get the firefox pdf plugin so I can
view pdf inline ?

mozplugger, from the main debian archive:

Description: Plugin allowing external viewers to be launched inside Mozilla
mozplugger allows you to seamlessly integrate external applications
to view files downloaded from the web that Mozilla can not normally
handle. The application is embedded within a Mozilla window as to act
like and feel like a true plugin.
.
This allows to you view PDFs, Postscript files, animations and
movies, amongst other file types all from within Mozilla (with
supporting applications).


I just installed it, and now firefox shows pdf's inline. I'll
uninstallit again, as I don't like that, but it does work:).
Interestingly i have this (I had it working before, but now it has
stopped working)
