Public bug reported:

I used to use Microsoft Office LiveMeeting Web client without problems
in Karmic and before that. In Karmic I was using sun-java5-plugin but
that is no longer available in Lucid, so now I use sun-java6-plugin.

Luckily they have a test page... Browsing to
https://www125.livemeeting.com/cc/test2007/webJoin?id=LiveMeeting2007Test&pw=&role=attend&cn=user
and clicking "Join Meeting", (then if needed, allow popups for that page
and click Join Meeting again) a window comes up to host the applet and
has a bunch of Loading... messages. Then they all go away, and a
separate Java Applet Window comes up with almost no size, centered in
the middle of the screen. And then nothing happens.

In one of my tests firefox hung at that point, but usually firefox is
still responsive but the applet does nothing.

Again, this all worked fine in Karmic with sun-java5-jre. When it works,
from the URL above you wind up looking at a remote powerpoint slide that
says it worked.

$ apt-cache policy sun-java6-plugin
