The problem is "If you've installed java-1.5.0-sun-plugin and you want
to use it with firefox, you'll need to set up the link manually as there
is a small bug in the java-1.5.0-sun-plugin package that causes it not
to set up the link properly for the FC4 firefox package." and it's still
not solved!
