This may be something stranded but even the data in about:plugins is
somewhat suspect.

    File name: npwrapper.nphelix.so

Maybe that July 26th date was from when something was built off of
this machine. I'm not sure.

I've removed realplayer. I need to search out exactly what you meant
by using xine inside my browser. I don't see an nsplugin for xine.

I'm a little worried that my machine here might need some looking
after in terms of getting up to date. I'm going to give the current
use flags a once over and then do an emerge -DuN world to make sure
everything is more or less consistent with what the Gentoo devs would
expect. I'll look at the wiki's and see if I can find a good AMD64
wiki that addresses all this stuff in parallel. If you get a chance to
clarify any of this then thanks in advance!

Back later, and thanks!
