Hello, Many people here in Norway (who run Hardy Alpha6) cannot login to their internet bank or do any other internet transactions because the Firefox's Java-plugin does not work. The security and login system is called BankID applet and it requires Sun's Java5/6 (or possibly later) plugin and JavaVM. Unfortunately the BankID does not work with the IcedTea java-7.
You can test the BankID here: http://bankid.no Clik on the "teste" link to test it. (english explanation is also avail http://bankid.no/index.db2?id=4373 ) Of course, the following (xcb related) workaround does work and BankID applet with Suns JavaVM is happy, but most end users will not understand these commands $ export LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK=1 $ firefox So this bug is rather severe. When will Sun Microsystems release Java7? Will it get into the Hardy before due date. Am happy to help what ever you ask ;-) -- xcb_xlib.c:50: xcb_xlib_unlock: Assertion `c->xlib.lock' failed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87947 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
