Matti:

I have installed Hardy on my machine.  Note that it is an Intel64
machine...  not an AMD as stated in my original bug report.

I checked the Java plugins now installed with Firefox.

Two appear to be installed:

GCJ Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea) 1.0
        File
        name: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/amd64/gcjwebplugin.so
        The GCJ Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea) executes Java
        applets.
        
GCJ Web Browser Plugin 0.96-pre
        File name: /usr/lib/gcj-4.2-81/libgcjwebplugin.so
        The GCJ Web Browser Plugin executes Java applets.
        
Confusing... as I am not sure which plugin actually executes the Java
applets.  

Nevertheless...  the bug remains exactly as I described it earlier.

Is there anything else I should check/install/uninstall???

jim...
