I had a similar problem after installing Opera on my third computer. I could 
not understand what was different about the installations that prevented java 
working on one computer and not the others.

The solution tirned out to be the order in which I declared plugin paths in 
Preferences>Multimedia>plugins>Plugin Path

I asked on the Opera news group, and was advised to change the order of the 
plugin paths in the list. After that it worked..
That was with the third 'Technology preview' version. In the Beta version 
they have added a little pop up window to manage the plugin paths, so I am 
not sure if it is still position sensitive.
In any case make sure that one of the plugin paths points directly at your 
/usr/java/j2re1.4.0/plugin/i386/ns4 directory.
