This is the age old problem, as far as I know, with 64-bit Linux and a
world full of 32-bit multimedia.  I think this wiki will surely
explain it better than I ever could. Hopefully the basic info you need
is there:

Way too complicated and risky! My solution is

1. Install 64-bit Firefox (compiled) for my main browser.
2. Install seamonkey-bin (32-bit) and change the R settings to use it as the browser instead of the default.

So ... everything except Java now works in Firefox and searches work in R. If something else needs Java, I guess I can use seamonkey-bin for it.
