I have been unable to get either plugin to be recognized by the latest Netscape rpm available from LinuxPPC. I went and downloaded the Sparc version of the plugin to see how the whole process worked under Solaris and noticed that the Solaris Netscape plugins already includes a libnullplugin.so which does not seem to exist in the ppc version of Netscape. The description of libnullplugin.so is that it helps support plugins under Netscape. Should there be a libnullplugin.so in /usr/lib/netscape/plugins/ under ppc? Is it needed to get other plugins to work? Any info here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kevin -- Kevin B.
