If it's the same thing, the problem is that Firefox want's to install the plugins to a system directory (/usr/lib/firefox/...) but you don't have write permission. Firefox could--but for some reason does not yet--store them in ~/.mozilla. The temporary workaround is to do the additions as root. -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences mjs AT clemson DOT edu http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs
