It does not work for me either with Chrome (non-free) and Sun Java on *Ubuntu 11.10*. I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 11.10 from Ubuntu 11.04 (where things worked), and jmol stopped working for me. This is because they removed the Sun java's. I added some ppa that added them back, installed them, and everything worked again. Then today I did the standard upgrade of packages in Ubuntu 11.10 stable today, and use of jmol in Sage is broken again, both locally and at sagenb.org. When I try to use Chrome or Safari on OS X Lion (10.7) instead of Linux, it also fails to show 3d and has a "missing plugin" message. By clicking and waiting, and downloading 65MB of things from Apple, this... gets fixed, and works. Evidently, OS X really doesn't include Java anymore by default (and upgrading an OS X that does results in one that doesn't). I'm looking forward to when Sage has a viable browser-based 3d display option that doesn't depend on Java applets. Surely there is something out there we can use -- I've been waiting forever.
