I have acroread working as an executable program, and I have firefox working. How do I get acroread to work as a plug-in with firefox? I have this working with firefox and acroread under winxp (under vmware) but I need it to work in nativer 64 bit intel/amd linux. How does one set up plugins in linux firefox?

Did you emerge app-text/acroread with nsplugin flag enabled and www-plugins/nspluginwrapper?

You can also try www-plugins/kpartsplugin + okular.

No, I did neither of those emerges, but I will try them tomorrow; it is 2:20 AM where I am, and I am getting pretty sleepy.

I will post after I try your advice. Thanks! :D
