Update to the latest j2re, or install it.

Then you need to put a symbolic link in your 
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.4.1/plugins directory to your installed j2re plugin.

After installing j2re ... In a shell, as root cd to 
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.4.1/plugins directory and type in the following ...

ln -s 
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_01/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so. 
This is for the standard j2re1.4.2_01
download and install from Sun.

If this is too complex just use nautilus file manager to copy the java 
plugin into the mozilla plugin directory.

The j2re1.4.2_01 works fine with all browsers for my setup.
