YEAH, the information is good, except for the symlinked browser_plugins.
You should not do this. That is, when I'd done this this week, mozilla
wouldn't start anymore. Error 76 on X. It stook me quite some time to
find out that the symlinked plugins dir was to blame. I removed the
browser_linux_plugins and mozilla worked again. All plugins just are in
browser_plugins. Having a REAL browser_linux_plugin dir does not harm
the system.
