For Debian and Ubuntu I prefer to use
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synaptic_(software)
instead of command line. There's only one distro where I like the
command line for managing packages from repositories, but for DEBs and
RPMs IMO GUIs are more comfortable and especially Synaptic is a really

Thank you very much. Appreciated. I don't mind goose chases if a goose

I thought I read or heard on a podcast (TechSNAP???) that Firefox (and
by implicit extension Iceweasel) was blacklisting sun-java due to
Oracle's epic fail with security. Can anyone confirm?
Not sure of a fix, other than, maybe, try openjdk/icetea. I don't
usually run java apps, if I can avoid it.
Hi,
Nothing I do seems to get the java plugin working in iceweasel. I installed
sun-java6-plugin, confirmed that the symlinks from the iceweasel plugins
directory are there, but it doesn't appear in about:plugins.
Any tips?
Thanks,
Mike

There's plenty of proprietary software that has poor or no functionality at
