[FC6] Firefox + Sun Java

[M. Lewis]

I'm not getting java to work. I followed the directions on Stanton 
Finley's page (substituting versions where applicable). However the java 
refuses to run for some reason.

[root at moe ~]# alternatives --config java

There are 2 programs which provide 'java'.

   Selection    Command
-----------------------------------------------
*  1           /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-gcj/bin/java
  + 2           /opt/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java

Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number: 2


[root at moe ~]# alternatives --display java
java - status is manual.
  link currently points to /opt/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java
/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-gcj/bin/java - priority 1420
  slave keytool: /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-gcj/bin/keytool
  slave rmiregistry: /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-gcj/bin/rmiregistry
  slave jre_exports: /usr/lib/jvm-exports/jre-1.4.2-gcj
  slave jre: /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-gcj
/opt/jre1.5.0_09/bin/java - priority 2
  slave keytool: (null)
  slave rmiregistry: (null)
  slave jre_exports: (null)
  slave jre: (null)
Current `best' version is /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-gcj/bin/java.


Any thoughts as to what I'm missing?

Thanks,
Mike
