Current Linux j2re working with current Linux firefox

[Martin Cracauer]

I'm not in a position to commit port changes yet, but just for note:

if you just use Linux Firefox 1.04 it works fine under my 5-stable
(just edit the Makefile in the port to use 1.04).

If you use the brand new j2re1.4.2_08 (the one with the security fix
against applet file read/write, I think you really want that), it
works fine as a plugin.  Just unpack, symlink done.

The "official" Linux jdk mentioned in the linux-firefox port does NOT
work last I checked.

Linux flash plugin also works normally with the above.  But note it is
supposed to be able to use your machine at will as well, so better
get the flashblocker, also works fine.
