1/ What about the "about:plugins" in Iceape? Can you see the Sun's java
JRE there?
I can see:
java.default_java_location_others;/usr/java
java.default_java_location_solaris;/usr/j2se
java.global_java_version_file;/etc/.java/versions
java.java_plugin_library_name;javaplugin_oji
java.private_java_version_file;~/.java/versions
And some more strings about javascript, but nothing on the sun-java6-*
that I *believe* I have installed
Ok. Then check you already have Sun's Java JRE by openning your preferred
package manager and searching from there.
The package you are looking for is named:
sun-java6-jre - Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 (architecture
independent files)
IIRC, I had to enable the "non-free" repo in order to get it.
Have just tried to install sun-java6-jre and the message from apt is:
sun-java6-jre is already the newest version.
sun-java6-jre set to manually installed.
2/ Can you run any java applet from Iceape? Go here and copy/paste the
results:

I don't see the "pink rectangle" with any lines of text as one would
expect from Method 1 on this page. I guess that I can conclude that
Iceape is not picking up the Java either, even though I do have the
"enable Java" option ticked in Edit/ Preferences/ Advanced tab.
O.k. Let's assume now that you have not installed the runtime environment
(JRE).
See above. If the latest sun-java6-jre *is* already installed, then it
seems that this is not being picked up by the browser(s). I was under
the impression that this was done automagically, but perhaps there is
something that I am supposed to be setting? As mentioned previously, I
did ensure that my system was using the right java package, but ... ?
Any ideas?
Are you sure Midori browser can work with java? As per this forum
thread, it seems having no support :-?

Well, that would explain Midori and also render Midori useless as a
dedicated FreeNet browser then.
I think so.
But let's hope at least you can launch it from Iceape :-)
I'd agree with that!
Cheers again.
