Still trying to get java working with firefox. I recompiled and

Applet testvm notinited
Loading Java Applet Failed
Your about:plugins looks the same as mine. Where is this java test
site?

This is a little off the topic, specifically, but I have been
struggling with java, and other (flash) plugins and firefox myself. I
have very much the same information as has been discussed in this
thread in /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins:

However, when I use the about:plugins page, it comes up essentially
blank, giving me only the information links about instaling plugins,
etc. I have been working under the assumption that I've done something
incredibly stupid, and attempting to find my error on my own, and have
the sinking feeling that it's probly staring me right in the face, and
I'm just too blind to see it. Do either of you (or anyone else for
that matter) have any advice or hints here, or does this seem as
strange to you as it does to me?
I can only repeat what I said before. 1) Check that the symbolic link
resolves correctly (ls -lL will show a file, not a link) 2) I'm not
convinced that a linux-java is what you want. The other poster
installed native java 1.4 and got it to show up as a plugin. That
"works" for me. I can use at least one site that has a java applet and
it doesn't crash all that often. Whether the linux-java can be made to
work, I do not know.
AFAIK, the notinited error being described above means a) Java *is*
running b) the applet is doing something broken which popping up the
Java console might help with.
