If you running an apt or yum based distro I a number of the custom
repositories have it. For example try http://dag.wieers.com/home-
made/apt/

Alternatively if you have successfully installed Java its simple to do
the plugin yourself.

0. find your java directory, then look in the jre/plugins/ directory for
libjavaplugin_oji.so

1. make a symbolic link using 'ln -s' (copying WONT work) from the
plugin to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

2. test by typing about:plugins in epiphany

If you're running a recent Fedora Core with no JVM installed, then I'm
not yet sure how to do it.

Cheers,
