Hi,

I just installed OpenSuse 10.3 and found that java doesn't works in
Firefox. I use the 64 bit version. On another 32 bit PC java works fine.
Does anybody has a clew how to get java work on 64 bit?
Same problem as with 10.2 and x86_64 version.
I am yet using 10.2/64 bit and Java is hot and steamy in my latest
Firefox. I do keep a symlink to the Java .so file in Firefox´s own
plugins directory as I have with other distros including 32 bit. I
suggest typing about:plugins in Firefox to see what you have enabled. I
bet Java is not. If you install it with yast it should be there. But
check Firefox´s options menus to see that Java and Jscript are selected
too. And do find the .so file and make that symlink.

There is no 64 bit Java plugin in the newer Java versions 1.5-.
You must have 32 bit firefox of older Java.

Thanks that worked. I installed the 32 bit version of Firefox.
