I get the same error in Ubuntu 8.04.1 (64-bit) when trying to view
either http://wypte.acislive.com/pda/pda_maps.asp?SysId=30 or
http://tsy.acislive.com/pda/pda_maps.asp?SysId=30 which are just two of
the online interactive bus route maps in the United Kingdom.  It's
supposed to display a navigable map, but all I get is a grey box where
the map should be.

Console Error is:

  PIPE: appletviewer read: instance-8990-3

Binary package hint: icedtea-java7-plugin

I am trying to access an applet from http://www.jigzone.com. The applet fails to load with error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
	at sun.applet.PluginMain.start(PluginMain.java:211)
	at sun.applet.PluginMain.main(PluginMain.java:73)


I am running Hardy Alpha 6 (firefox3, icedtea-java7). The applet works just fine on my Gutsy box (firefox2, sun6).

I have attached the complete console output
