@ John Vivirito ok, i tried that and go this output: No alternatives for /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/i386/gcjwebplugin.so.
then i realized that the "alternative" must be a file in the /etc/alternatives dir. (which makes sense. ;) give me a break, i've never used update-alternatives before). so i only found one java plugin in there, so then i tried: sudo update-alternatives --set xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so javaplugin_oji and got: update-alternatives: Cannot find alternative `javaplugin_oji'. (which i'm sure means i don't have that file (javaplugin_oji.so) on my system. an mlocate search didn't reveal one either). so then i noticed that i had copied gcjwebplugin.so file to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins (where it wasn't being detected by fx). so then i thought, i'm 99% sure i tried this before but i'll try it again any way. i copied the file (gcjwebplugin.so) to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins and voila! it now shows up in about:plugins. but for some reason it still isn't showing up in konqueror's about:plugins. is there something that hasn't been implemented yet that makes it incompatible with konqueror? -- java plugin not working in firefox 3 on ubuntu 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173966 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
