The Java program code is as following import java.io.IOException; public class Main { public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException { //this website has a small Java applet inside Runtime.getRuntime.exec("firefox http://javatester.org/version.html";); System.out.println("hello world"); } } My JRE (yes, JRE, not JDK) is Oracle JRE 1.6.0_38. What the program does is essentially opening http://javatester.org/version.html in Firefox. This website has a small Java applet, so performance won't be a problem. What happens then is that, Firefox is opened, http://javatester.org/version.html is opened, BUT the applet inside the website FAILS to play. The same thing happens if my Java program opens any other website which has applet. However, if I run "firefox http://javatester.org/version.html"; from command line, everything works perfectly. Similarly, if I open Firefox, then I type http://javatester.org/version.html at the URL field, everything also works perfectly. This problem happens in Firefox, but NOT in Chromium (which I installed from your standard repository). This problem doesn't happen in Oracle Linux distro. I haven't tried in other Linux distros, though.
