Mine is reporting the same version of Java. I WAS using Mozilla 0.9.8 so
I just upgraded but still no luck. I get the loading screen just fine,
and then it just stops. The progress indicator doesn't budge. Quite an
annoyance.

fine, but trying to run any of the popcap games (www.popcap.com) results
in the "loader" portion of the program loading and then immediately
terminating. This is a problem since the loader portion of the program
is responsible for actually downloading the full game.

After going through the java2 plugin control panel I've failed to find
anything useful. The .java_wrapper script has a promising entry
referring to the J2SE_PREEMPTCLOSE environment variable. Unfortunately,
.java_wrapper doesn't appear to be called by the java plugin.

Any suggestions?

It works mostly well in Mozilla 1.0RC2 from Sid (Atomic 
something-or-other didn't work; everything else I tried did).


I would've posted this several hours ago, except, well, um, I got 
involved in testing out some of those popcap games . . . .

BTW; "about:plugins" reports that I've got the "Java(TM) Plug-in 
Blackdown-1.3.1-FCS" plugin.
