I downloaded and installed the Linux (i386) RPM and quit SeaMonkey. (...)
As described in the release notes (Known Issues section), the Oracle
Java 7 plugin does not work with SeaMonkey on Linux. The analysis has
been ongoing for months but still no clue.

AFAIK the free Java alternatives like IcedTea or GNU Java do work.
Normal users should look for package names like "openjdk-7-jre",
"icedtea-7-plugin" or "gcj-jre". However in your case you might end up
with the x64 version.
