You may have noticed that we now have openjdk 6.b17 based on the icedtea1.7 release. The new xulrunner makes it change to use NPplugin. This uses much less from the Mozilla/Xulrunner API. see http://dbhole.wordpress.com/ for more. The new plugin now solves this test in Firefox: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml It is known to work also at least with Google's chrome browser that the upstream dev is also testing on his Fedora system. This doesn't work in our distribution. I assume Fedora has little compat hacks in their xulrunner pkg we don't have or something we miss in ld.so.conf I'd like to call for help to make the plugin work with our other (webkit based) browsers. -Andy
