Solving my own problem here. A **seemingly** unrelated change
has broken Java for many people.
Have a look at this bug..which also contains a workaround.

When you type the URL "about:plugins" in your browser, do you get a
"Java" section?

Ideally you should (if you have the official Sun/Oracle) JRE installed,
get a section that starts with "Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_26"

Can you copy/paste in your response to me here?

Did you run "sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun" after
installing the JRE?

Type "sudo update-java-alternatives -l" to get a list of java
environments installed. Not all of them have a plugin available...

You have to install the java browser plugin. Check synaptic for java plugin.

icedtea6-plugin - web browser plugin based on OpenJDK and IcedTea to
execute Java applets

and because you show:
$ sudo update-java-alternatives -l
java-1.6.0-openjdk 1061 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk

Use 'icedtea6-plugin' as Ioannis already pointed out.

You can also install galternatives and directly look at the links set
for "mozilla-javaplugin.so" I use Oracle Java7 so I can't tell you would
it should be set to using the OpenJDK. Someone else could. Running 32bit
on this machine my link is:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/lib/i386/libpjp2.so

Have you enabled both the "Canonical Partners" and "Independent"
repositories in Synaptic, at Settings->Repositories->Other Software?

If you enable them, you should see sun java plugin (assuming you are
using Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10).

Remove the "s" from "plugins" in your search command. :)

For a supported production environment, I suggest you install the
complete sun-java6 (including sun-java6-plugin).
