I've being trying to get 'about:plugins' to recognize these .so files
libflashplayer.so nphelix.so nphelix.xpt nppdf.so, I copied them from
.mozilla/plugins to /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins,other .so's files are
recognized.
what am I doing wrong
----
copying 32 bit plugins into a 64 bit folder doesn't exactly strike me as
the way to make them work. That strikes me as a really good way to make
sure that they don't work.

Do you have nspluginwrapper packages installed? (I think you need both
the i386 and X86_64 versions installed)

Craig


I used this : libflashplayer-10.0.45.2.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
OK I didn't realise that :
nphelix.so nphelix.xpt nppdf.so
were i386 plugins,I'll remove them,but it still leaves libflashplayer
not showing up in 'about:plugins'

I am of course presuming that the file you have is not really the
'tar.gz' file but actually the binary file left when you un-tar the file
(libflashplayer-10.0.45.2.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz).

Craig


Ok I did the steps 1,2,3.
Yes I used the binary .so
Still not showing up in 'about:plugins'
----
where did you put libflashplayer-xxx.so ?

did it create a new pluginreg.dat file in your firefox profile?

as user (not root), what do you get from...

$ grep flash ~/.mozilla/firefox/$YOUR_PROFILE/pluginreg.dat

Craig


Yes it created a new file.
This produced nothing ' grep flash
~/.mozilla/firefox/rgadfjcz.default/pluginreg.dat',but there is a list
of plugins seen through
less ~/.mozilla/firefox/rgadfjcz.default/pluginreg.dat
