Sounds reasonable (pun unintended)

Not quite:
# dpkg-reconfigure mozilla-firefox
Updating mozilla-firefox chrome registry...done.

Did that, 35.000 results, looked at the first 50 or so, and found one,
including a site to test the wrapper. Firefox worked. (But through the

So I tried to run flash:

and at the same time open a PDF on a new tab: works well.
Shall I assume then, that the flash on Malaysiakini didn't do any damage
to displaying Acrobat ?
Thanks anyway,
