Hello I am using nppd.so ad aplugin for PDF files in Epiphany. Plugin installed from ports (pluginwrapper) Epiphany 1.06 FreeBSD 5.2.1 Flash plugin works great, Acrobat reader works great by itself. When I attempt to view a PDF file in epiphany from a URL, nppd.so attempts to launch acrobat reader and hangs at the splash screen. (Force quit to get out of it) Anybody solve this one before? TIA for thoughts. More info: the file nppd.so is a link: in /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 48 Aug 16 12:02 nppdf.so -> /usr/local/ Acrobat5/Browsers/intellinux/nppdf.so in /etc/libmap.conf # Acrobat with Opera [/usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins/nppdf.so] libc.so.6 pluginwrapper/acrobat.so # Acrobat with Konqueror # KDE on FreeBSD requires plugins to be placed in /opt/mozilla/ plugins/. # (unlike many other www browsers on X11, it does not support # /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins/ for a plugin directory) # So please copy nppdf.so to /opt/mozilla/plugins/ like following lines. # mkdir -p /opt/mozilla/plugins # cd /usr/local/Acrobat5/Browsers/intellinux # cp nppdf.so /opt/mozilla/plugins/ [/opt/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so] libc.so.6 pluginwrapper/acrobat.so # Acrobat with Mozilla/Firebird/Galeon/Epiphany [/usr/local/Acrobat5/Browsers/intellinux/nppdf.so] libc.so.6 pluginwrapper/acrobat.so
