I found the 4x example and copied it to etc and removed the stuff for Opera... When I started firefox and went to about:plugins, I now have a new one for realplayer, but I'm still missing acroread. I had previously found the nppdf.so and made a hard link into the directory where nphelix (Helix DNA plugin: realplayer g2) is. Why it sees one and not the other is beyond me... any more ideas? btw, thanks for the previous info. On Friday 28 January 2005 11:28 pm, Andrew L.
