Fix JAVA plugin in Firefox 3 in Ubuntu Hardy
July 11th, 2008 at 1:27pm |
If you installed java-gcj and openjdk the Mozilla Firefox browser java plugin wouldn’t work. The only working browser plugin is currently sun-java6-plugin.
sudo apt-get remove gcjwebplugin-4.2 java-gcj-compat java-gcj-compat-headless java-gcj-compat-plugin libaccess-bridge-java openjdk-6-jre openjdk-6-jre-headless openjdk-6-jre-lib
sudo apt-get install odbcinst1debian1 sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin unixodbc
optional: delete pluginre.dat file in your browser profile directory
(usually in $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/[something].profile/ )

sudo apt-get install icedtea-gcjwebplugin
works just fine for Firefox 3 on Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy)
There is an applet at
http://www.potterymarks.co.uk/pottery.html
that I used to verify plugin working correctly.
The applet allows you to do ‘back’ and ‘next’ through
a series of pottery signature markings and it is using
a java applet to do it.
