K.D.
Moved your post to the bottom. Makes it a LOT easier to follow a
thread as in 'please don't top post'. I don't care but most others do.
I built 1.6.0 but it works on the same the principle for you in 1.5.0.
Do you mean you copied the actual files there? I'd get rid of them
first to keep from any confusion. You have to link back to the actual
binary as it needs other stuff which isn't in your plugins directory.
Then:
ln -fs /usr/local/jdk-1.5.0/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so \
~/.mozilla/plugins/
Open firefox & in the address bar type 'about:plugins' (minus quotes).
Mine looks like so:
Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_03-p4-b00
File name: libjavaplugin_oji.so
Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_03
Lots of java specs follow below that.
Okay? [ Chuc may man! (minus diacritics - just guessing ]
Apologies if I'm wrong. ;)
