    checking for MOZPLUG... no
    configure: WARNING: mozilla-plugin not found
    checking for MOZPLUG... no

    configure: WARNING: xulrunner-plugin not found
    configure: error: Unable to find mozilla or firefox development files


    I believe i have to basic set-up complete but i seem to be missing a step. To be honest I'm not even sure exactly where plugins are in linux. /usr/lib/ somewhere around there. Well obviously I'm a noob and i have been trying to find a fileplayer with some controls, i got vlc to work but i'd rather have a player with some controls.

    You need firefox-devel installed, and your plugins are located at /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

    What distro are you using? It would be much easier to get this through your package manager.

    I'm using Suse 10.1, just got it a few days ago, i'm starting to learn my way around though.

    I don't have the package for the plugins....I'll get them and prob run into a few dependancy errors because that is how i do.

    Thx for the help guys, now i just have to get a working mplayer and i'm good...and opengl configured...and printer...all in due time.
