I want my system to be as much 64 bit as I can reasonably figure out how to do. I gave up on firefox 64 bit because of troubles with proprietarty plugins (acrobat, flash, etc). I couldn't get nspluginwrapper to work for me. charlie
I finally got around to installing firefox 64. The /usr/bin/firefox script is exactly the same for both firefox 32 & firefox 64. To fix the script to run firefox 32, become root and edit the script file by commenting out these lines: #if [ -x "/usr/lib64/firefox-1.5.0.8/firefox-bin" ] #then # MOZ_LIB_DIR="/usr/lib64" #fi Once I did that, firefox 32 seems to run fine. -- Regards, Charlie
