I'll try this again; google groups just gave me a "This message has been deleted" after I posted...anyone know why this happened?

Here was what worked for me: - Run the "jconfig" application (mine was in the path at /usr/bin/jconfig; "locate" might find it elsewhere) - Click Security tab, click "Enable Java content in the browser", lower Security Level to "Medium", - I also added "https://cloud.sagemath.com" to the Exception Site List, but if you're running a "local install", may not need this. Starting jmol will give some warning messages, but it seems to work fine. Hope this works for you, too.
