For me after doing: 

sudo rm /etc/alternatives/javaplugin
sudo 
ln -s 
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0_update13/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
 
javaplugin

I get java stuff just fine, but it still says I am missing the javaplug-in

I don't know how this patch got past QA.. Must have been sleeping on the job..  

WIth that said. the page:

Crashes my Opera with the changes I did above..
