Hello,
It seems that the x86_64 version of jdk on SL5 actually has a browser 
plugin now.
java-1.6.0-sun-compat has been updated to put the x86_64 java plugin 
into the x86_64 firefox plugin area.

Note: The x86_64 java plugin is called libnpjp2.so

To test or update

SL5
-------
      yum --enablerepo=sl-testing update jdk java\*

or you can download rpm's by hand at

http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/5rolling/testing/i386/java/
