I found the following at: http://www.softwareinreview.com/cms/content/view/60/ 64-bit users will have some trouble with the Java and video browser plugins because they are 64-bit by default, whereas Firefox in openSUSE is 32-bit by default so that it can better support proprietary plugins. I haven't had much luck trying to install i586 RPMs for these plugins in 64-bit openSUSE, but I did find that using the 64-bit version of Konqueror solved nearly every problem. Anything that wouldn't play or run in Firefox would play or run in Konqueror. Since Java Web applets are fairly rare, and most video sites are currently publishing in Flash or offer RealPlayer as an alternative, I suggest using Firefox for most things, and Konqueror (or Epiphany in GNOME) when Firefox can't play something. # end quote So, I did a fresh install of the 32 bit version and my troubles went away.
