Public bug reported:
When trying to run SonicWall Virtual Office from Ubuntu 11.10 (Confirmed on
three installations, one of which was fresh virtual box install) the applet
fails to initialize and this is output to stderr/stdout:

(by the way; is there a way to get at the stderr output of an
application that is already running? Or do I have to restart firefox
from a terminal to get the stderr?)
The expected behavior is to get the usual confirmation window (and an
additional window asking to allow "unsafe" behavior). I solved the problem
temporarily by installing Sun Java as detailed in this blog post (that I
wrote):

It seems to me that either icedtea-plugin, openjdk or both have a
problem since they crash instead of prompting for permission or just
denying it with an explanation.
