To enable java, download and install the appropriate version for your architecture here. http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=www.java.com . For i386: Navigate to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and create ln -s to /usr/java/jre*/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so. For x86_64: Navigate to /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins and ln -s to /usr/lib/java/jre*/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so. HTH, YMMV B.J.
