matti:

Sorry to be so slow in responding.  I may be over my head on this thing.

I have installed Hardy Heron and I have installed icedtea-gcjwebplugin
(1.0-0ubuntu5).  I removed gcjwebplugin-4.2.  I run 
update-java-alternatives --plugin --set java-6-openjdk
(as root) and it responds 
No alternatives for firefox-3.0-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for firefox-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for iceape-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for iceweasel-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for midbrowser-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for mozilla-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for xulrunner-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for firefox-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for iceape-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for iceweasel-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for midbrowser-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for mozilla-javaplugin.so.
No alternatives for xulrunner-javaplugin.so.

The applet from http://www.goes.noaa.gov/GSSLOOPS/wcir.html still does
not execute properly (no animation as the files do not load as I
described before).
