Type in "about:plugin" and make sure you have it in Firefox. Check if it is enabled in Edit > Preferences > Content > [x] Enable Java. Have you done pacman -S libxtst? Check if you have "/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so". I am not using openjdk, I am just using jre from the repos, but I think it would be similarly in "/opt/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so" and you can just link it to "/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/". Make sure your permission settings are all correct, so on. I haven't heard of any complaints so far so maybe it's just a problem on your end.

Look if the old version is still in pacman's cache, and run pacman -U on that package: pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/openjdk6-1.4-2-i686.pkg.tar.gz See http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Downgrade_packages for more info. By the way, I see the same problem after the update from 1.4-2 to 1.4.1-1. The java process consumes 100% CPU and doesn't seem to result in anything. But we'd better file a bug for this. Downgrading with command above made it work again. Kind regards, -- Bram Schoenmakers What is mind? No matter. What is matter? Never mind. (Punch, 1855)

I'm sorry. It seems that no java applets works. I have some physical and virtual machines with arch, and I have mixed them... Best Regards, Guillermo Leira
