The directions I provided seem to no longer work for the firefox-1.5.0.12 update. You now have to link directly to the browser: sudo ln -s /usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.12/plugins/ Please flame the developer/maintainer who changed the plugins location behavior. It just causes extra work for those of us who use more than one mozilla-based browser.
Please do not flame the developer/maintainer. After re-installing mplayerplug-in, RealPlayer10, and a few others applications I can make, change, and create links in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and have them reflected in about:plugins for Firefox-1.5.0.12 and mozilla-seamonkey. One of those packages set a switch. Now, I just have to find out what was set or reset.
