I tried self building. It didn't work. It took a few hours to download and compile everything successfully, but it still doesn't work.
When I visit http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre&try=1 it tells me that additional plugins are required to display all of the media on this page. So I start the plugin finder and it tells me I need the GCJ web browser plugin. So I tell it to download it. And then it says that it's already installed. This works great! -- icedtea-java7-plugin always crashes firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152362 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
