Hello,
This rpm has been updated. Now for i386 we have both the old
(libjavaplugin_oji.so) and the new (libnpjp2.so) plugin.
To test these updates, simply follow the instructions below. You should
be getting
SL4:
java-1.6.0-sun-compat-1.6.0.20-3.sl4.jpp.i586.rpm
SL5:
java-1.6.0-sun-compat-1.6.0.20-3.sl5.jpp.i586.rpm
java-1.6.0-sun-compat-1.6.0.20-3.sl5.jpp.x86_64.rpm
Thanks to those who have tested, and to Oleg for getting me a fix that
put's both plugin's in for i386.

Hello,
The new firefox 3.6 will only use the new java plugin (libnpjp2.so) not
use the older java plugin (libjavaplugin_oji.so).
The current java-1.6.0-sun-compat links the older java plugin for i386,
which firefox cannot use.
This updated java-1.6.0-sun-compat links the new libnpjp2.so java plugin
for both i386 and x86_64, so that firefox can use the java plugin.
Since the updated firefox has already been pushed out, we expect this to
be pushed out in a day or two.
