Public bug reported:

Firefox does not recognize that the mplayer plugin provides divx support
in a standard installation of ubuntu feisty. Using about:config in
firefox does not show the divx plugin even though divx support is
provided in

/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/mplayerplug-in-dvx.so
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/mplayerplug-in-dvx.xpt

moving these two files to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ solves the problem.
