Works for me on oi_147 x86, Firefox 4b10 and Java 6 update 23, yes.

I have a plugins directory at ~/.mozilla/plugins

Contents of it:

117016 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root    bin   15M 2011-02-04 11:28 libflashplayer.so
117015 lrwxrwxrwx 1 davenz staff  45 2011-02-04 11:27 libnpjp2.so -> /usr/jdk/jdk1.6.0_23/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so

Browsing to www.java.com and running the JRE detection utility picks it up correctly.

Cheers,
Dave
