I _guess_ (since you haven't written it unfortunately) that you installed the
java-1.5.0*plugin package and you run the 32bit package of Firefox.
In addition I guess that the java-1.5.0-sun package above is the 64bit version.
That can't work.
Firefox is loading the 32bit Java plugin but this plugin can't access the 64bit
JVM.
If you need the JDK you could replace the 64bit JDK with the 32bit one and
everything should work again.
