Getting the Sun JDK/JRE plugin to work is easy, as per the instructions at:
http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/java.html#Linux Also, the j2se-package, erm, package, lets you build Debian-compliant Java packages easily and those are supposed to configure the plugin for you. Of course, that's for the j2se, not the j2re, I hardly ever install just a JRE as I'm a developer, so I don't know what Debian packages you need if you don't want the j2se on your system.
