Bug Description
Ubuntu Intrepid has support for the latest version of java (version 6 update 10 build 33), but the old plugin is still enabled, not the new one with support for draggable applets, jnlp-based applets and other new features. These applets for example will not work: https:/
To fix this I ran:
sudo update-alternatives --install /etc/alternativ
sudo update-alternatives --config xulrunner-
But perhaps other plugin alternatives should point to the new plugin location:
/usr/lib/
instead of:
/usr/lib/
ibjavaplugin_oji.so
That includes those listed in /usr/lib/
xulrunner-
firefox-
iceape-
iceweasel-
mozilla-
midbrowser-
xulrunner-
