Version: 2.0 (using KDE 3.1.1) Installed from: SuSE Compiler: gcc version 3.3 20030226 (prerelease) (SuSE Linux) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-4GB In SuSE 8.2, Mozilla is configured to put plugins in /opt/mozilla/lib/plugins (instead of /opt/mozilla/plugins in older versions). It would be nice if that path was added to the plugin search path in KControl. Thanks for your attention.

I can do that. I just thought that having the most common research paths directly in upstream KDE could be nice (in fact, /opt/mozilla/plugins was added after a similar bugreport from me, one or two years ago). In any case, I'll send a message to SuSE. Regards.
The only file in there is: /opt/mozilla/lib/plugins/libnullplugin.so I doubt KDE needs that. All real life plugins are in /usr/lib/browser-plugins/ - and KDE knows about it. I added the /opt/mozilla/lib/plugins path now to nspluginscan - possibly people put stuff in there.
On my system with Mozilla 1.3, that folder contains all the plugins, not only the null one, and Mozilla doesn't find those I put in /opt/mozilla/plugins. But thanks for the /usr/lib/browser-plugins tip, I didn't know about that one.
