Hi, Squeeze amd64 up to date : update-alternatives --display iceweasel-javaplugin.so iceweasel-javaplugin.so - automatic mode link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so - priorité 63 Current `best' version is /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so. and about:plugins reports the right plugin. It's : apt-cache policy sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-plugin: Installé : 6-16-1 Candidat : 6-16-1 I use Sid's iceweasel : apt-cache policy iceweasel iceweasel: Installé : 3.5.4-1 Candidat : 3.5.4-1 But everything is not shinny, when I try the Sun java testing applet I end up with a very badly corrupted screen, killing Iceweasel isn't enough to recover, I have to log out my session (it doesn't crash kde4). I just found out about it following your post, didn't look into it yet... As stated in update-alternatives output it's in "automatic" mode, I don't remember doing anything special to get it to work.
