Comment 15 for bug 216457

Corey: I've installed your package and I can confirm that it works appropriately (at least with the minimal amount of testing that I did). The browser plugin with Firefox 3 Beta 5 makes Sun's Java test page at www.java.com work (the little logo dances around like it's supposed to), and--more importantly for me--it allows me to successfully launch both the java-based HP Integrated Lights-Out applet and the java-based applet of my IP KVM switch from my Ubuntu Hardy laptop (upgraded from Gutsy). I could do none of these things before with Hardy's icedtea/openjdk-6 or sun-java6 packages, and wow, was that a frustrating experience!

Note that this was the extent of my tests--verifying at www.java.com, successfully launching the applets, and using them to connect remotely to the consoles of my servers.

This package conflicted with the openjkd-6 and sun-java6 jre packages; I had to remove them in order to install this package. Is this expected behavior?
