I never have any problems as long as I run 32 bit firefox with no
nspluginwrapper. I know I'm supposed to be able to run 32 bit
firefox on my 64 bit system, but I can't ever seem to get that
working the way it is "supposed" to work, however if I run a script
which sets all LD_LIBRARY_PATH stuff to point to my 32 bit
boot partition, that does seem to work. The nspluginwrapper
is a separate problem - I keep running into random flash apps
which send the wrapper into 100% cpu loops (though I can't say
UI've ever seen that on cnn videos).

Firefox is one of the things I never understood why any distros
bother to ship a 64 bit version. I can't imagine there are any
48 gigabyte web pages you might need a 64 bit browser to display
and as long as all the plugins people actually need seem to only
come in 32 bit versions, a 64 bit browser is a bit of a pain
(on the other hand, I use it most of the time because I don't
want flash working :-).
