Someplace between Firefox 3.5 and 4.0 I changed from diablo to openjdk.

It was 3.6. Check the archives for considerable gnashing of teeth as we tried to figure out how to get Java working again.

ln -s /usr/local/openjdk6/jre/lib/IcedTeaPlugin.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/
was the missing step for me.

Free bonus: if you use Chromium, it works there, too:

ln -s /usr/local/openjdk6/jre/lib/IcedTeaPlugin.so /usr/local/share/chromium/
