    Firefox JRE plugin Installation

    Hello Everyone ,

    Yesterday I wasn't able to successful enable JRE in my firefox.

    This is what I did ,

    I downloaded the rpm from the file and installed it in /usr/java
    Code:
    chmod a+x jre-6u<version>-linux-i586-rpm.bin
    ./jre-6u<version>-linux-i586-rpm.bin
    This successfully installed Firefox JRE in my system now in order to make firefox know abt it

    I went to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins and

    Code:
    ln -s /usr/java/jre1.6.0_24/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
    as said in the instruction manual. Still firefox isn't able to recognise the plugin.
