There's a post in the forums, which tells you how to use a 32bit plugin. Other than that, there no other way really. HTH. -- Jow -- Money can't buy everything.

Not only the installer, the whole flash thing doesn't support amd64, so you have to use a 32bit-browser (i.e. mozilla-firefox-bin). You can't load a 32bit-plugin into a 64bit browser, that's the problem. Greetings, blubb -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list

I want to install firefox with the multilanguage support (like mozilla), is it possible or I can use only one language? And in every case, there is the a binary version avaible in other languages, what I must do to install that by emerge?

Mainly, to support netscape-style plugins, Konqueror uses an external program (nspluginviewer) which load the plugin. You only need to have that program compiled for 32-bit environment. Look on the forum, there's a post about it. I'm using it without a problem right now. The only thing.. you will be unable to use 64-bit plugins in that case, but this shouldn't be a problem, as with konqueror java is used without nsplugins and kaffeine and other software could take care as kpart of showing videos and audio.
