First, if you're using the .deb package, I'd recommend you install the
package straight from Mozilla. It works better.
Next, open a root terminal and issue the following commands:
# cd /usr/bin/
# rm firefox
# ln -s /home/(username)/firefox-installer/firefox firefox
That'll get you a fully functional version of Firefox without having to
change your settings.
Next, you need to install the plugins. They should be somewhere in
/usr/lib, Mine are in /usr/lib/j2re1.4sun/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/, the
file is libjavaplugin_oji.so, your j2re1.4sun directory is probably
different, but the rest of it will be the same...I rolled my own package.
So, the following commands will help you:
$ cd /home/username/firefox-installer/plugins
$ ln -s /usr/lib/(java)/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so
libjavaplugin_oji
Hope that helps.
