On Karmic before deinstalling sun-java firefox crashed with every java applet.
After removing everything besides default-jdk and its' dependencies on karmic amd64 I got the following backtrace.

IcedTea Plugin Doesnt Work

Binary package hint: icedtea6-plugin

Having installed the icedteam plugin for the web, I've found it does not work. Going to this test URL results in failure:

http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml

CPU utilisation spams to 100% and no java applets are working.

I have the current Jaunty repo revision installed, which is the following:

nullack@PPP:~$ sudo apt-cache policy icedtea6-plugin

FireFox knows that it is installed:

    The IcedTea Java Web Browser Plugin 1.4.1 (6b14-1.4.1-0ubuntu4) executes Java applets.
