From mozilla-firebird faq:
Mozilla Firebird is compiled with gcc 3.2.3, so a compatible version of
the Java plugin must be used. JRE 1.4.2 contains a compatible plugin.
If you installed the JRE 1.4.2_01 RPM, this plugin is
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_01/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so and
to install it for Mozilla Firebird, do the following:
Open a terminal
Change to your Mozilla Firebird plugins directory
Issue the following command: ln -s
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_01/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so
If you are using an older Linux distribution, you may need to install
the gcc3 support libraries, as the gcc 3.2 version of the Java plugin
requires libgcc_s.so.1 to operate. You may be able to find packages
using Google.
