[ale] DUH!! RE: Help! Not getting java right on F10

[Mills John M-NPHW64]

I went through a few more 'bootless' [in the Shakespearean sense] cycles then brought up Firefox 'help'. I found it works better when I check "Enable Java" in Edit->Preferences->Content. &8-P)
 <SIGH/>

Thanks, Scott.

Mills,
You want to create a sym link from /usr/lib/firefox*/plugins to
/usr/java/jre1.6.0_13/plugins/nss/lib*java.so  (I might have the exact paths
incorrect, I'm doing this from memory, but they should be close)  You'll
need to kill all open firefox sessions for the new plugin to be loaded upon
next firefox exec.
