Hmmm. I'm a bit confused. I thought RH 6.0 and above including Mandrake
was
glibc2.. Can you explain this?
I've tried plugger a few times and it installed, but everytime a web
"event" called something
to utilize plugger CRASH!... Maybe this is indeed my answer, since I
dloaded glibc2.
This is damn confusing. How do you tell? How do you know?
Ever since the last attempt at plugger in which I had to edit a number
of things in Netscape
just to get RID of it!!!
I find this interesting since all my local linux buddies say GLIBC2!!!
If anyone can explain this and tell me how to figure out what I need I
would appreciate it!!
