Hello Clayton and others,
Running 11.0 64 bit here, 64 bit Firefox 3.0b5, and KDE3.5. Also having big problems with Java that I didn't have on 10.3. All exactly the same except the OS version. I used 1.7 (Iced Tea) and it's plugins there and it worked perfectly.
icedtea is very experimental and should not be used. After 11.0 was dropped out from SUSE and it exists just for historical reasons, because it was a first open source java released by Sun.
Neither 1.6 and it's plugins work, nor 1.7 Iced Tea and it's plugins work on 11.0.
You must specify if you told about openjdk or sun java, because those version have different Java plugins. Sun Java should works almost everywhere.
(Both work fine on Konqueror) In fact when I tried 1.6 and went to the Java site and clicked on the "Do I have Java" link it actually killed Firefox. 1.7 survived that but didn't work. Then I tried your weird combination of 1.6 and the 1.7 plugins. No good.
I also went to the Wiki page suggested by Mariusz and followed the instructions there step-by-step. Still no good.
Maybe I need to upgrade or downgrade Firefox?
What JVMs do you have installed? rpm -qa | grep java-1_? What do you have in update-alternatives --display javaplugin? I suggest remove icedtea and openjdk and use only Sun Java, because it would works without a problem on openSUSE 11.0.
