All,

I've gotten Flash and Java going with Firefox, as root, using the
directions here:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/desktop-browsers.html

However, I can't get it going as a standard user. When I run

     'nspluginwrapper -v -a -i'

I get the following:

     Auto-install plugins from /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins
     Looking for plugins in /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins
     Auto-install plugins from /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-flashplugin
     Looking for plugins in /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-flashplugin
     Install plugin /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
      ... already installed system-wide, skipping
     Auto-install plugins from /home/kurt/.mozilla/plugins
     Looking for plugins in /home/kurt/.mozilla/plugins

and 'about:plugins' only shows libnullplugin.so as enabled for all MIME types.

     'nspluginwrapper -l'

shows

     /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
       Original plugin: /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
       Wrapper version string: 1.2.2

Any ideas?

Kurt
