Yes it runs! Much faster than 3.6. Check out this CentOS wiki post for all the ... scary details.
All things relative to everyday programming and DBA practices, This blog will not give you the ET staff, just little remindings about how things work. Subjects are relative to databases, programming, Linux, Windows and ... you name it. I used to have a notepad onto which I put down anything I thought I might need again. Hopefully this is going to be as good as the paper with the added value of being able to paste from.

CentOS: Manual install of plugins for Mozilla Firefox
This is just a note to myself and everyone else in the same spot.
Flash Player
Manual installation of the Flash player plugin for a new Firefox installation is done like this :
[root@lxbakalidis ~]# cd /opt/mozilla/firefox/plugins [root@lxbakalidis plugins]# ln -sf /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so libflashplayer.so
Detailed instructions for installing flash-player from Adobe are available here.
Java
The java plugin gets installed by linking libjavaplugin_oji.so located in $JAVA_HOME/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/ in your plugin dir.
Real Player
For real Player the plugin name is nphelix.so
and the plugin location is /opt/RealPlayer//mozilla/

Firefox 2.0.0.0.x on CentOS 5.1
Thanks to people like Diezel who posted the original article on nixadmins.net, we now know that in order for Firefox 2.0 to run on a CentOS (or Red Hat EL) version 5.1 machine, we need to install compat-libstdc++-33.
Using yum this is done as easy as entering
#yum install compat-libstdc++-33
s the root user. The rest is trivial.
