That PPA doesn't seem to contain a plugin for Firefox. I've installed the openjdk-7-jdk package and the plugin definitely seems to be missing. I don't see any other packages starting with 'openjdk' that look like they might provide that. Trying to switch my alternatives to use openjdk-7 gives this error:
$ sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-7-openjdk update-java-alternatives: plugin alternative does not exist: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk/jre/lib/i386/IcedTeaPlugin.so -- The plugin does not properly start HP RiLOE II remote console https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/198093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenJDK, which is subscribed to openjdk-6 in ubuntu. Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have a java jar file, which is used by the HP RiLOE II remote console board. The applet is embedded into the web interface of the RiLOE like so: <!-- Use jar based archive --> document.writeln("<APPLET CODE = \"remcons.class\" ARCHIVE = \"remcons.jar\""); document.writeln("width="+consoleWidth+" height="+consoleHeight+">"); document.writeln("<PARAM NAME = ARCHIVE VALUE = \"remcons.jar\" >"); document.writeln("<PARAM NAME=\"DUALCURSOR\" VALUE=\"false\">"); The applet only produces a gray square area, with so signs of any interactivity. When the applet does work, using the official JDK, the applet displays a screen of my server, which I can use to remote control it. Please note that on AMD64, I'm forced to using IcedTea as the official Sun JRE does not provide a web plugin! _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openjdk Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openjdk More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
