Native 64bit Java plugin for Firefox, on Ubuntu.

Posted on January 9th, 2009 by Alejandro. Filed under 64-bit, Firefox, Linux, Ubuntu, terminal.

Now there are no more reasons not to install 64bit Ubuntu. First is was Adobe with their native 64 bit Flash plug-in and now Sun has released a native 64 bit Java plug-in.

To install the 64 bit java plugin on Intrepid 8.10:

Download the bin file here
cd /opt
sudo sh jre-6u12-ea-bin-b03-linux-amd64-22_dec_2008.bin
cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
sudo ln -s /opt/jre1.6.0_12/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so
Restart Firefox

Done!

Share and Enjoy:
