The solution of malokrant it works great for me in a ubuntu hardy heron system in mozilla firefox 3 beta 5, i just made this:
1.- Install the ubuntu-restricted-extras from synaptics or in the console with
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
2.- Go into the console and write this:
cd /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b5/plugins [not any other]
After, you must put this:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
3.- Write about:plugins in the navigator and you must to find the java plugin at the end of the list of plugins

Use and Enjoy!!!
