John et al, I've been doing without JMOL on 64-bit Ubuntu, since Sun had not made a 64-bit plugin until just recently. VERY inconvenient. ;-) I've had similar frustrations as John with all sorts of JRE's around/ installed.
However, I got this new plugin installed last night in about 5 minutes. The instructions might help others on different platforms - the Sun download area has RPM's, etc. Here is the Ubuntu thread, just follow the first poster's instructions modified/adjusted to fit your situation. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1011899 Rob On Mar 7, 6:57 am, John Cremona <john.crem...@gmail.com> wrote: > When I try to view the frst demo I get this (and similarly from within > Sage) in a yellow fram in the window. > > You do not have Java applets enabled in your web browser, or your > browser is blocking this applet. > Check the warning message from your browser and/or enable Java applets in > your web browser preferences, or install the Java Runtime Environment > fromwww.java.com > > In the past I tried several ways to solve this but to no avail: I *do* > have Java applets enabled in Firefox, there is no warning message from > Firefox, and I have all sorts of version of JRE installed (this is in > ubuntu).
