I usually have access only to a 4.11 box (at least for i386) and I've retested the plugin there with positive results. However, at the moment I can also access a 5.4/i386 box. I was hoping that this would have the problem, but everything has tested out correctly on it for me. I had thought up till now that it may be xorg that is causing the problem, but now I'm not so sure. There are some other differences I'll look into though. > > > Last but not least, a beginner question: How do you run firefox in gdb? > > > I found firefox-bin, but it won't launch without the environment grooming > > > that its scriptup scripts perform, and I can't run gdb on the startup > > > script :( > > > > Determine the environment variables you need to set from the start up > > script.

Its not as hard as it sounds, you can probably get the information by simply inserting a printenv in the appropriate place in the script. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
