Thanks for the reply. Indeed, using oracle's java plugin worked. OTOH, most linux distributions seem to be using icedtea by default. Since the package managers cannot deal with Oracle's java, the user has the responsibility of keeping it up to date, opening the door for security vulnerabilities, as the user might not follow the security updates from Oracle very closely. I did install it, as I need Sage, but feel very conflicted about it... (I know this has nothing to do with Sage. Sorry for sidetracking for a moment.)
