You wrote that you're "

gcc that you're using. There are two sdk files, one for gcc2, and one
for gcc3. Whichever one you downloaded, you might try the other one.



1.4.2-rc1 for gcc 3.2; according to what was written in here for Firebird
0.7


This is the one that worked for me.

ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/linux/devel/lang/java/blackdown.org/JDK-1.4.2/i386/rc1/j2sdk-1.4.2-rc1-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin





Oops; I mean:
ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/linux/devel/lang/java/blackdown.org/JDK-1.4.1/i386/01/j2sdk-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin <ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/linux/devel/lang/java/blackdown.org/JDK-1.4.1/i386/01/j2sdk-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin>

When I copied/pasted that previous link, I just went through the same motions I did when I installed it to get to the file location, only I didn't realize there was a 1.2 version out now and so my mouse-manuevering finger clicked on the wrong link.

I just downloaded and installed the first link above, and popcap's Java games still work, and my "about:plugins" shows:
Java(TM) Plug-in Blackdown-1.4.2-rc1

   File name: libjavaplugin_oji.so
   Blackdown Java-Linux <http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux.html>
   Java(TM) Plug-in 1.4.2


Be aware, and this might be your problem, I had to change permissions on the /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2 directory in order for my user to be able to read the directory:
enjae[westk]:/usr/local> chown -R root.staff j2sdk1.4.2
enjae[westk]:/usr/local> chmod go+rx j2sdk1.4.2
enjae[westk]:/usr/local> ls -l
total 39
