i switched to Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_13-b03 provided by...
$ apt-cache policy sun-java6-bin
sun-java6-bin:
Installed: 6-13-1
Candidate: 6-13-1
Version table:
*** 6-13-1 0
500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/multiverse Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
I also moved my ~/.mozilla folder out of the way to get a clean session,
and tried disabling all other plugins except the java one.
I don't know if it matters but the numbers emitted by strace vary each time I
launch firefox get stuck and try again, eg:
read(79, 0xbfaa2920, 4) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
read(79, 0xbfaa2920, 4) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
or
read(65, 0xbfa87b60, 4) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
read(65, 0xbfa87b60, 4) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
I did attach gdb to firefox to try and get more info, but haven't got very far
yet.
ps -A | grep firefox
gdb --pid 9812

firefox hangs for emapsite applet, strace shows EAGAIN repeatedly
