As stated. I have a link in ~/.mozilla/plugin that points to test/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so, which is the java 6 update 21 runtime environment.

Java doesn't show in about:plugins, and java applets don't start (firefox suggests to install missing plugins).

Java programs using the jre outside the browser work.

This is on Linux 32-bits, Slackware 13.0, kernel 2.6.34.

Where did you read that?

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Java

In Firefox 3.6 and later versions you need the Next-Generation Java™ Plug-In present in Java 6 U10 and later (Linux: libnpjp2.so; Windows: npjp2.dll).
