Hi guys,

I have Debian 5.04 and have a little trouble with JRE.
I downloaded the new JRE from Sun and installed it. But
how do I tell firefox how to use the JRE ?

Thanks

Danny



Hi,
there is also sun-java6-plugin in non-free repositories.

Do you have any particular reason for downloading the JRE directly from
Sun and not installing it from the repositories? The package you are
looking for is "sun-java6-jre" and there is also a "sun-java6-plugin"
which are both available from the non-free component.

Kind regards

You can read (and follow) the instructions provided by Oracle:
