The error msg is: Java Plugin Needed You need the java plugin <http://java.com> to watch this screencast. However, I have java plugin installed and configured. *% java -version* java version "1.6.0_27" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.12.6) (6b27-1.12.6-1ubuntu0.10.04.4) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode) *% update-alternatives --display java* java - auto mode link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java - priority 1061 slave java.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/man/man1/java.1.gz Current `best' version is /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java. Please also refer to the attached screen shot. What am I missing here? Again, thank you so much, mark.
