Comment 8 for bug 255956

i'm on 32-bit Hardy.

for me, the applet wasn't starting. i had both sun-java6-plugin and icedtea-gcjwebplugin installed, and the Icedtea one was overriding the Sun one.

i first tried removing icedtea-gcjwebplugin, which made the Sun plugin active. trying the applet again caused the browser to crash, reproducably. i've attached the error output (i'm not sure if the first line is related).

i then tried removing sun-java6-plugin and installing icedtea-gcjwebplugin on its own. same result as with both installed.

then i tried gcjwebplugin. that brought up a different "do you trust this source" message, which i accepted, and the applet didn't start.

i removed that and tried, as a last resort, sun-java5-plugin. with this, the applet loads and works fine.
