Since updating icedtea-6-plugin today to 1.2-2ubuntu1.1 Chromium will not run java applets. They work fine in Firefox and were working fine in Chromium before the icedtea update.

Chromium 18.0.1025.168 (Developer Build 134367) Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit

There is no error message.

Tried http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp, the applet just doesn't appear.

Maybe you reintroduced the bug?
Haven't found a solution on the web. :(
Firefox does seem to work.
And it's also not every site that uses java that fails on Chrome. The java test in http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp works fine.

Same here, after a quasi-fresh install (everything installed 2 weeks ago). Installed chrome and icedetea plugin. Firefox works, Chrome does not.
