    How to activate Moonlight 2.0 in google-chrome?

    Hi,
    i just install with shiretoko3.5 moonlight 2 beta 5 on my dell mini 9. Anyone knows is it possible to activate this plugin in google-chrome?

    Flash and Java were just accepted from Firefox setup...

    Thanks

    Well, i made some progress, but still ca not watch silverlight movies. I found moonlight 2:

    Code:
    /home/++++/.mozilla/firefox/dz8sws51.default/extensions/moonlight@novell.com/plugins/
    Here is one file and one folder:
    Code:
    libmoonloaderxpi.so
    moonlight
    -here i have some files (see pict. 1)

    I made shortcut in
    Code:
    /opt/google/chrome/plugins/
    to
    Code:
    libmoonloaderxpi.so
    But it shows that this plugin is crashed when i try to watch silverlight movies.

    Should i point the shortcut to some other file? Does anyone knows what really plugin is there?

    Just extract the contents of the plugins folder in the .xpi archive to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/. I just tried it and it works.

    Hm, apparently it's a codec problem. It crashes in Chromium for me as well, but in Firefox it prompts to install codecs. Installing the codecs in Firefox and moving ~/.mozilla/plugins/moonlight/silverlight-media-pack-linux-x64-16-1.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ didn't fix the crashes in Chromium, but Firefox still detected the plugin despite the new location. Not sure how to fix this.
