Possibly the crashing is behind me. I appreciate all the attention. Now, on to Flash and Java...

I reinstalled it and now going to the video.yahoo.com page doesn't cause a warning anymore. However when I try to play any video I see the first couple of frames and then I see a gray box drawn over the top. Audio continues as the video plays but I no longer see any video. Lest I sound like I'm complaining I do think we're making progress. I rebooted the machine and started the 64-bit browser. Always before if I created a second tab and tried to rearrange tabs the browser crashed. It no longer does that. (Maybe simply because I;m using the 64-bit version. I don't know...) I wonder if I should be deleting the .mozilla directory to properly test this stuff? OK, so here's what I'm currently seeing in about:plugins: Shockwave Flash npwrapper.libflashplayer.so Helix DNA Plugin: RealPlayer G2 Plug-In Compatible npwrapper.nphelix.so NPAPI Plugins Wrapper 0.9.91.4 npwrapper.so VLC Multimedia Plugin libvlcplugin.so QuickTime Plug-in 6.0 / 7 mplayerplug-in-qt.so mplayerplug-in 3.45 mplayerplug-in.so Currently if I go to this page Java isn't working at all. http://www.prophet.net/analyze/javacharts.jsp Not my biggest problem but I need to solve it. STATUS: 1) Firefox crashing - Possibly fixed. Thanks! 2) Flash video - gray box. This is what I'd like to solve first if possible. 3) Java - not seen by the browser. Have done very little work on it yet but building a little on Jeffery's idea I tried to do it with the currently installed version of Java: lightning ~ # slocate libjavaplugin_oji.so /opt/emul-linux-x86-java-1.6.0.03/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /opt/emul-linux-x86-java-1.6.0.03/plugin/i386/ns7-gcc29/libjavaplugin_oji.so lightning ~ # mark@lightning ~ $ ls -la .mozilla/plugins ls: cannot access .mozilla/plugins: No such file or directory mark@lightning ~ $ So I have no .mozilla/plugins directory to build the link. I tried adding a plugins directory and creating a link as shown but the Prophet web site still says no Java. mark@lightning ~/.mozilla/plugins $ ls -la total 12 drwxr-xr-x 2 mark users 4096 2007-11-12 12:56 . drwx------ 4 mark users 4096 2007-11-12 12:56 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 mark users 70 2007-11-12 12:56 libjavaplugin_oji.so -> /opt/emul-linux-x86-java-1.6.0.03/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so mark@lightning ~/.mozilla/plugins $ I used the first link but maybe that's wrong since it points at the emul-linux directory?
