I think the Mozilla plugin site explicitly says that you cannot copy the Java plugin into the Mozilla plugin directory. You have to make a symbolic link to it in the plugin directory. Please try that.

Then I fired up R and tried things and found that help.start( ) does not work. I downloaded Sun Java j2re1.4.2, installed that and re-installed R-1.7.1 from scratch.

Mozilla still crashed. Can you tell me how to make help.start( ) work in R-1.7.1? > It doesn't help much, but it works fine on my SuSE 8.2 box, using R-1.7.1 (patched) and Mozlla 1.2.1. I've also used Konqueror (the KDE browser/file manager) using help.start(browser="konqueror"). Have you tried that (or Galleon, or Opera, or ...)?
