adobe plugin for firefox not working

[Jaime Davila]

Hello all,

After a fresh install of dapper, with the 1.5.03 Firefox version that 
installs automatically, and after adding acroread, acroread-plugins, and 
Mozilla-acroread, PDF files fail to open inside Firefox. Instead, the 
document opens outside of Firefox, in adobe reader.

I have tried installing both through apt-get and synaptic, with the same 
effect. Looking at "about:plugins" in Firefox doesn't list acrobat reader.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jaime
