I don't have FF 2.0 running on this machine, but I do have it on my jacklab
box (a SUSE 10.2 derivative which is customized for musicians and media
content creators). I've always used Stanton Finley's instructions for
installing most of this sort of stuff, and even though he's moved on to
Ubuntu and didn't continue past FC5, I've found that most of his instrux for
FC5 work just fine for FC6. I was going to use his suggested method but in
his last instruction of that section, he suggests a site to visit to check
your installation, and on a whim, I clicked on that link. When I got to the
site, it said I needed additional plug-ins to run the page and offered a
button to click-install, so I did that. It worked! I can't say which piece of
software was responsible for that particular piece of voodo - whether it was
Firefox, SUSE, or what - it happenned quite quickly. I would guess that this
was part of the jacklab customization of SUSE at work, but that's just a
guess. In any event, I would suggest you review Stanton's instructions, and
start from there - he does have a suggestion for modifying a Selinux setting
that might be your issue.
