I have Firefox 1.04 on my Windows 2000 computer and my Linux laptop
(Ubuntu 5.04, 64-bit). No problems on the Windows 2000 version, but on
the laptop I keep getting sites that say there is a missing plugin. I
click to install the plugin, it appears to install it, and when I
restart Firefox, the plugin is still not there.

Also, Firefox on the Windows 2000 computer is 1.04. On the Linux
laptop it appears to be 1.02, but evidently there is a bug that makes
earlier versions of Firefox appear as 1.02. I don't care if there is a
bug in the About page. All I want is to be sure I am running 64-bit
Ubuntu. Is there a way to determine this? And a way to fix it?
