Hi. I recently installed SuSE 10.2 on a Sun Ultra 40 Workstation

That's 64-bit right?

and I have noticed that even when I have Java installed on my system (actually I use NetBeans 5.5 to develp Java applications) Firefox isn't able to start applets from a website, instead it tells me that the JRE plugin is needed in order to do so

If it is a 64-bit version of SUSE you're running I've read that you may need to run the 32-bit version of FF to be able to run the 32-bit plugins (like Java) that are on your system. When you installed NB 5.5, did you have the option of installing a 32 or 64-bit version? I only have 32-bit, so I'm not aware if there is a 64-bit version of NB or the JRE/JDK.

, then I click it to start searching the plugin and tells me that it is not available and a manual installation is needed.

I guess that Firefox it's not registered as a browser that JRE should know.

If there's a 32-bit / 64-bit issue, this would be it. Try a 32-bit version of Firefox and see what happens. You can always install it in a separate folder. I have 1.5 on one folder and 2.0 on another folder.

Could someone help me to fix this problem??, I think I know how to fix it in Windows XP (Java module in Control Panel) but not for SuSE.

Thanks in advance!!!.
