In about:plugins, what’s the filename of the Java plugin?
Is it libjavaplugin_oji.so? If so, you should update to the new Java plugin. Run:
sudo update-alternatives --config xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so
Now select libnpjp2.so instead and restart Firefox.
Source: Out of date java 6 plugin installed.
Looking at about:config I see “javaplugin_oji” for “java.java_plugin_library_name”.
But then this happens:
aav@xmilla:~/$ sudo update-alternatives –config xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so
There is only one alternative in link group xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so
Nothing to configure.
Those applets linked in the bug report seem to WFM anyway. Not sure whether to be suspicious or not.
@Carl
Maybe your browser actually uses one of the other plugins listed in /usr/lib/jvm/.java-6-sun.jinfo and not xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so?
