</div>Yeah, I'd count on it. 64-bit browser can of course use the 32-bit<br>
plugin by way of nspluginwrapper, but once you're in the 32-bit<br>
plugin, everything it uses is going to need to be 32-bit too.<br></blockquote><div><br>I always install the binary NVIDIA drivers using the NVIDIA installer (rather than repackaged debs). I always choose to install the 32-bit compatibility libraries. I'm assuming that means I should be good to go for VDPAU-accelerated Flash using the 32-bit plugin and nspluginwrapper on an AMD64 browser, but I wanted to get confirmation. Does anyone else do this? <br>
