My appologies. The directions I provided seem to no longer work for
the firefox-1.5.0.12 update. You now have to link directly to the
browser:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so
/usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.12/plugins/

Please flame the developer/maintainer who changed the plugins location
behavior. It just causes extra work for those of us who use more than
one mozilla-based browser.
