You need the 32Bit-Firefox, even on a x86_64 system 'cause there is no
64Bit-Version of the Java browser plugin available from Sun.
And you need to install the 32Bit-Version of Sun's JRE or Java-SDK.

After installing there should be a link to libjavaplugin_oji.so in
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins. If not, create it:
   cd /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
   ln -s <path_to_java>/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so .

Restart your browser and type in "about:plugins". If everything
went o.k., you should see the Java plugin there.

Regards,
  Stephan.
