[Bug 173966] Re: java plugin not working in firefox 3 on ubuntu 8.04

[MikeBee]

i concur. this was also the case in gutsy with firefox 2.

on a default install, i added the java6 mozilla plugin, but it was not
listed in about:plugins under firefox 3 beta.

i had to create a symbolic link in ~/.mozilla/plugins for it to work.
this would be very frustrating for newbies as all the gui windows
indicated that the plugin was installed correctly, however firefox never
picked it up from the /etc/alternatives/ directory or the symbolic link
under /usr/mozilla/plugins (or similar?)
