I do not have the slightest problem with it. Where is Firefox situated? Or better; what is the command to ask bash where it lives?

Indeed, there are some things written about it in the past, and as i recall we all agreed there should be fit a 64bit version of java in a 64bit firefox, on a 64bit platform..

Hope somebody will see it. I am also trying to get Java working on my 64 bit Firefox on 10.3 (MozillaFirefox-2.0.0.11-1.5) I also have java-1.5.0 and java-1.6.0 installed. Don't know if they are 32 bit or not. They have many many files scattered everywhere. eg: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> whereis java java: /usr/bin/java /etc/java /usr/lib64/java /usr/bin/X11/java /usr/share/java /usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> But there is no /java directory in either /usr or /usr/local Now, I attempt to install the plugin but I am offered different varieties of 1.5.0 and 1.6.0 in i586 or x86_64. Don't know which I need. Not knowing what to do I went to the java site and downloaded the jre-6u3-linux-amd64.rpm but did not install it because the install instructions say it should be installed in /usr/java or /usr/local/java, neither of which I have. And, I don't want to scatter more unknown java files throughout my system.. Should I uninstall the two javas that I have and start over fresh? Hope somebody will straighten out my confusion here.
