'too deep.' I had it in /home/jerry/java/j2sdk1.4.2_03/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/ and moving it to /usr/java worked. (what I did:) su <root password> mkdir /usr/java mv /home/jerry/java/j2sdk1.4.2_03/* /usr/java/ exit then update the links: ln -s /usr/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so (yours may be a different destination dir) It's been a while since i've used opera but IIRC you can have it look for plugins in your mozilla plugin directory HTH.
