For some reason, it worked. Of course, I've also experienced two updates to x.org since as well, so perhaps some things have been fixed. Results so far: Java applets load and function in all browsers I use that are capable - Firefox 2, Firefox 3 beta, Opera 9.5 beta, and Konqueror 3.5.?. Azureus opens and does not crash immediately (it will later, but that's an Azureus bug). I am going to install Frostwire and see how it fares, as I'm having trouble with giFT at the moment anyhow. BTW, my path to java is /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.04/jre/lib/i386 for Opera and /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.04/bin/java for Konqueror<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('3108','mrcorey'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('3108','mrcorey','I followed your suggestion to ditch Iced Tea and go back with Sun\'s java.
