You don't need a the whole chroot thing if you only want flash and java |
| 15 |
working in your firefox. |
| 16 |
In this case: |
| 17 |
* use firefox-bin (a 32bit firefox binary provided by portage) |
| 18 |
* the (usual) 32 bit flash plugin |
| 19 |
* a _32 bit_ libjavaplugin_oji.so : the java plugin file, you could copy |
| 20 |
one from your other gentoo 32 bit system. I don't know if this is just |
| 21 |
luck, but I only have dev-java/blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.02 which is compiled |
| 22 |
in 64 bit and it does work! |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
mplayerplug-in does not want to work for now as far as I have tested |
| 25 |
(that is, not so much). |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Hope that helps. |

I think building and maintaining a whole 32bit chroot is really |
| 29 |
annoying, and after all you can run most 32bits apps out of a chroot |
| 30 |
with the provided emul packages. |
