First, kafeine-mozilla places the plugins (kaffeineplugin.so, ...) in
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins
instead of
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins

However, even after copying these plugins into /usr/lib/firefox/plugins,
the kaffeine-starter plugin _is not regconized_ by firefox-3. The page about:plugins
does not list this plugin and of course embedded video cannot be played, only can be
saved to disk.

Note that this plugin is recognized and works OK with firefox-2 (after placing it into
the right directory /usr/lib/firefox/plugins)

lsb_release -rd yields:
Description:    Ubuntu 8.04
Release:        8.04

apt-cache policy kaffeine-mozilla yields
kaffeine-mozilla:
  Installé : 0.4.3.1.dfsg-0.1
