Starting in Firefox 3.6.7 (I think) the (Sun) Java plugin changed names. Here is what it should look like ...

The plugin name changed .. the old one plugin is still in the jdk, but will silently fail in the browser.
---- Funny I ahve: amd64 java "Sun" FF 64bit libnpjp2.so -> /usr/java/jre1.6.0_21/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so
and it does not work period. Sun says 64bit plugin works? All my 32 bit workstations are fine.
