The fact that we run 64-bit (Flash is working with nspluginwrapper)  
might have something to do with this? Can Java work with  
nspluginwrapper or is 32-bit Firefox the only way? 'nspluginwrapper - 
v -a -u' doesn't get me Java in 64-bit Firefox and 'nspluginwrapper - 
i /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so' tells me that file  
is not a valid NPAPI plugin.
