I'm answering on David's behalf. It sounds like he saw the restricted formats page and my bug report and got discouraged. I filed #6465 which is the plugin fails to load ticket. I have tried jre and jdk 1.5.0_13. The rpms I used are: jdk-1_5_0_13-linux-i586-rpm.bin and jre-1_5_0_13-linux-i586-rpm.bin. I have tried various update-1 builds and joyride build 2137. This is with various builds of browse up to 92. I installed Java as described in the restricted formats page: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Restricted_Formats In all cases the behavior is the same. the Java install proceeds normally. Java is available directly to run Java applications. The Java plugin is found if I run Firefox under XFCE. The same plugin is not sucessfully loaded by Browse. The plugin does not show in 'about:plugins' in Browse. See trac #6465 http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/6465 for more details and discussion.
