Thanks for your reply.
I am using Java 1.6.0r21. Following the instructions on http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/manual-plugin-install-linux-13... I made a ling from Firefox to /usr/java/jre1.6.0_21/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so, but Firefox still does't use Java. In fact Java doesn't show up in Tools/Add-ons/Plugins.
Any further suggestions? [snip]
I am using openSUSE 11.3 which was upgraded from 11.2. There used to be a configuration utility called 'alternatives' which you could run to choose a java instance from among multiple installs. Although this seems to have disappeared when I upgraded, all the links and config are still present in my /etc/alternatives directory. Your machine is most likely quite different from mine, so adjust accordingly.
The new wiki isn't done yet, but the page on 'update-alternatives' you are talking about exists here: http://old-en.opensuse.org/Java/setDefaultJava -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
