At the plugin document site http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux.html look under java section and you need to make a soft link in /mozilla/plugins directory something like this [mike@avatar plugins]$ ln -s usr/java/j2re1.4.2_03/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so Or where ever the path is to the libjavaplugin_oji.so on your system then restart mozilla and it should be there when you type about:plugins You may have to be root to make the link, I forget.
