I am bleary eyed from googling on how to install my new java as a plugin in Firefox. Firefox sees my old java just fine. I enter " about

lugins" in my search bar and java 6 runtime 7 shows up just fine. I go to mozillas update java for advanced users and they show how to update in Windows vista and XP. Nothing about Linux. Go figure. After some sleep maybe I'll figure out where to look next. What is funny is mozilla states the plugin is a dll file and in linux its a
libjavaplugin_oji so file
I can't copy and paste that plugin to firefox folder because firefox will crash if I do. I have to figure out how to make a symbolic link for the plugin from the opts folder over to the firefox plugins folder for it to work properly. Not bad for a GED Biker fella. The adventure continues.
