I have installed both:

But no Java plugin in Firefox.
I go to: http://java.com/en/download/help/enable_browser.xml
And yes, Java is enabled but still get the dreaded 'download plugin'.
I seem to recall some magic linking needed, but my docs are in Freemind
that I can't get installed either.....
The secret is in 'alternatives', here is what I do in my kickstart
By 'kickstart', you have a custom install that does this for all of your
systems????
scripts (mind the wrap):
# Remove Sun added links
rm -f /usr/bin/javaws
rm -f /usr/bin/jcontrol
# Add Sun Java to alternatives
alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/default/bin/java 1000 --slave /usr/lib/jvm/jre jre /usr/java/default --slave /usr/bin/javaws javaws /usr/java/default/bin/javaws --slave /usr/bin/jcontrol jcontrol /usr/java/default/bin/jcontrol --slave /usr/bin/rmiregistry rmiregistry /usr/java/default/bin/rmiregistry
I **think** this ran right. Afterall, I did not have a path to
alternatives, and I had to hit the up key then home then insert
/usr/sbin/ so yeah, I minded the wrap.
# Set Sun Java as the preferred Java environment
alternatives --set java /usr/java/default/bin/java
This should work even if you upgrade the Sun Java version.
And I shut down firefox (after I did this), restarted it, and still am
getting 'Install missing Plugins' for the site: www.uniwho.com (local
plumbing supplier).
