What is the output of the command

Hmm... after an updatedb, did this
# locate mozilla-plug
No results.
? And if you have flash-plugin in ~/.mozilla then many bad things
Looks like I'm OK there.

This is the one from the adobe site.
# rpm -qv flash-plugin flash-plugin-10.0.12.36-release
will happen to you. Remove it and install the one from Adobe yum repo together with nspluginwrapper from CentOS repos.
Did it.
# rpm -q nspluginwrapper nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-22.el5
However, when I restart FF, this plugin does _not_ appear in the tools->add-ons plugins tab window. Should it? The pluginreg.dat seems to have been updated and the nspluginwrapper is in there.

Does it help?
Might be hard to tell since the behavior is inconsistent. But everything is now set the way "we" think it should be.

Since missing stuff reappeared during testing, I guess there will be a delay while I see if the behavior occurs again.
I'll keep this post and post either when it happens again or after a few days if it doesn't happen again.

Thanks for all the help,
