I completely agree with Mahdi and Alexandre.
Firefox 32bit on AMD64 is a must have for ubuntu being a user-freindly
experience. Please live up to the Kubuntu slogan Linux for human beings.
I am a convert from SuSE and I am quite disappointed with the lack of firefox
32bit on amd64 in (k)ubuntu.
Agreed with Mahdi, icedtea simply doesn't cut it for Java, and
nspluginwrapper is unfortunately still quite broken in Hardy. It stops
working after about 10 minutes, or anytime you have multiple tabs open
using Flash simultaneously.
Just take a look at how many views and questions there are on

There are actually *73* open bugs in LaunchPad for nspluginwrapper:

How much longer are you guys going to keep pretending that it works?

firefox32 for amd64 =
I'm sorry to bump this one again, but ffox32 is really a must-have. Icedtea
java7 plugin does not satisfy all users yet. Home banking authentication, for
example, does not work
(https://www2.bancobrasil.com.br/aapf/login.jsp?aapf.IDH=sim , for example. The
virtual keyboard load and works, but
please stop bumping the bug status. This is wont fix. We have icedtea-
java7 now in gutsy. Use that one as its basically suns java. The plugin
works well, so this thing is actually resolved for all major use cases:
flash + java.

How difficult is it to provide a 32bit firefox installation packaged for amd64.
It's not even that nswrapper doesn't support *all* plugins, it doesn't support
one major one: JAVA
Just build a firefox installation as 32bit for 64bit systems, even as an
optional package!!!
OR, write a replacement
It's pointless providing an incomplete system. Systems like LTSP
servers with more than 4GB ram can't run 32bit ubuntu. So they cannot
be crippled by not having a FULLY functional web browser in an
environment that does support 4+GB ram. It's also not realistic to ask
people to open a shell and
I need firefox32 too, I dont want to use things like old swiftfox 2.0.4
32bit or Fedora Core 7, only because someone wont fix this.

See, there is people interested. This bug had one year and a half when
it was simply ignored as we won't fix it.
Perhaps a look at what people want - or need - wouldn't be bad.

The nane of the bug is support 32-bit plugins. As it's stated on the
other comments, it's a work in progress, with the nspluginwrapper. When
it's working, the bug must be close, right? I see no point in putting a
wontfix right now just to decrease the bug count.
** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu)
nspluginwrapper has been released to gutsy. Marking as invalid due to it
already being in the archives.

nspluginwrapper does not support *all* plugins ... which is why this is
only partially fixed. To support every 32-bit plugin we would need to
ship 32 bit firefox, which is 'Won't fix' ...
