Bug description:
Binary package hint: icedtea-gcjwebplugin

The java runtime worked with 7.10 on both Firefox and Swiftwesel Firefox. However it does not work on Ubuntu 8.04
Icetea shows it, i have done all the things right, but it won't run, I am no expert but I did try to do what I did when it successfully installed on 7.10 and the older versions of Ubuntu and I still have the other firefox broser on here so it is not working in the 3. beta or the Swiftweasel verson. So I think it is a problem with Ice tea.
Also it looks like SUN does not list UBUNTU as one of its packages for JRE.

I guess I will give it a while but it looks like I might have to go back to and older distro as 7.10 was working fine.

Perhaps it is just a bug,  Good luck fixing it.

Thanks
