I'm running a bunch of 64 bit boxes, all work well with all of the 32 bit
firefox plugins for the 32 bit firefox version.
Use:

to get everything running.

Thanks for your answer. I tried this, but there are some "failed
dependancies"...
Try to install them manually.
So, my next question is: is possible to tell yum to install specific i386
packages (with right dependancies of course!)?
No that I know of.
You'll have to manually install the i386 compat libraries and firefox.
It seems also, that xmms is not working: I have only 2 output plugins: arts
and crossfade. With the first one xmms complains that it cannot connect a
arts server, the second one kills xmms...
Bugzilla?
