I couldn't find the original link but this is what I did to get the Java plugin working.
Code:
mkdir /root/Downloads
Downloaded the latest java http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp self-extracting file
Code:
mkdir /opt/java
cd /opt/java
sh /root/Download/<filename.bin>
update-alternatives –install “/usr/bin/java” “java” “/opt/java/jre1.6.0_21/bin/java” 1
update-alternatives --set /opt/java/jre1.6.0_21/bin/java
ln –s /opt/java/jre1.6.0_21/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so /usr/lib/Mozilla/plugins/
export JAVA_HOME=”/opt/java/jre1.6.0_21/bin/java”
java –version
Now plugin will work in firefox x64
