My understanding is that the compatablilty table is: Mozilla Java Compiler Debian-package(unstable?) Blackdown gcc-3.2 Mozilla.org Sun gcc-2.95 I am running Sarge (Testing). I've tried two versions of Mozilla and two versions of Java. Both load the Sun plugin but not the Blackdown plugin (e.g., for the Blackdown plugin nothing shows in about:plugins in Mozilla). To install a plugin, I'm symlinking the plugin file into Mozilla's plugin dir. apt-get install Mozilla version: 1.0 bin: /usr/bin/mozilla plugindir: /usr/lib/mozilla Mozilla.org Talkback build, installed via installer version: 1.3 bin: /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla plugindir: /usr/local/mozilla/plugin Blackdown source: j2sdk-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin Plugin: /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1/jre/plugin/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so Result: doesn't load (e.g., doesn't appear in Mozilla about:plugins) Sun source: j2sdk-1.4.1_02 (don't have the binary any more) Plugin: /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_02/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/javaplugin_oji.so Result: loads (e.g., lots of listings in Mozilla about:plugins) In both versions of Mozilla, viewing a simple applet (tests fine in appletviewer) with the Sun plugin installed, displays a puzzle-piece icon, clicking the icon yields the error saying that "application/x-java-applet;version=1.4.1" isn't installed, although this precise listing shows in about:plugins.
