You can use konqueror, a 64-bit web browser that is able to use
Sun java without a mozilla-style plugin. Many sites, especially
java compliance test sites, works fine with this. As well as
many java games.

Some sites do not work - stupid web designers sometimes assumes
that java is running _as a plugin_, just as they sometimes
assumes that you use IE.
