I fixed it by creating the directory ~/.mozilla/plugins. In there I created symbolic links. Here is mine, yours may vary... lrwxrwxrwx 1 egreshko egreshko 39 2007-12-21 11:32 libflashplayer.so -> /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 egreshko egreshko 58 2007-12-21 09:41 libjavaplugin_oji.so -> /usr/java/default/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 egreshko egreshko 37 2007-12-21 11:46 npwrapper.so -> /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/npwrapper.so I don't think it will make a difference...but I also have the environment variable JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/java_latest/jre set as well as $JAVA_HOME/bin set in my PATH.
