I found the problem. One would think that means x86_64 version... no, the only Linux version of Firefox is 32 bits. I found this out because the firefox 3.5 that was automagically provided for download works on a different system that is 32 bits. So given 32 bit firefox, I installed 32 bit java and 32 bit flash. All that processing power wasted ... sigh. And while I can download source and compile 64 bit firefox, that will probably break a lot of the plugins.
