I did the following do get the java plugin working on my
testing/unstable box:

Download:
ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/languages/java/linux/JDK-1.4.1/i386/01/j2sdk-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin

Unpack it with bash j2sdk-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin
Move the newly created dir to /usr/local/
Include the path to the bin dir in your PATH
link the plugin into the mozilla plugin dir.

Restart mozilla and you're done.
