I am using Firefox 3.0.11 on 64-bit Gentoo with icedtea6 1.5 (from java-overlay). If I go to any webpage with a java applet, Firefox immediately closes. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to a page with a java applet (such as http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml) Actual Results: Firefox closes Expected Results: Java applet should run Portage 2.1.6.13 (default/linux/amd64/2008.0/desktop, gcc-4.3.3, glibc-2.9_p20081201-r2, 2.6.29-gentoo-r5 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.29-gentoo-r5-x86_64-Intel-R-_Core-TM-2_Quad_CPU_Q9300_@_2.50GHz-with-gentoo-1.12.11.1 Timestamp of tree: Fri, 31 Jul 2009 06:30:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 3.2_p39 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.8-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.6.2-r1 dev-util/cmake: 2.6.4 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.11.1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.6-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.63-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6a virtual/os-headers: 2.6.27-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=core2 -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/lib/hsqldb" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/language.dat.d /etc/texmf/language.def.d /etc/texmf/updmap.d /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=core2 -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks fixpackages parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirrors.rit.edu/gentoo/ " LANG="en_US.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" LINGUAS="en en_US" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/layman/Spring /usr/portage/local/layman/desktop-effects /usr/portage/local/layman/java-overlay" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X a52 aac acl acpi aiglx alsa amd64 aoss asf berkdb bittorrent bluetooth branding bzip2 cairo cdparanoia cdr cjk cli cracklib crypt cups curl dbus dri dts dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode esd evo fam ffmpeg finger fontconfig fortran ftp gcj gconf gd gdbm gif glitz gmp gnome gnutls gopher gpm gstreamer gtk hal iconv imagemagick ipv6 isdnlog java java6 javascript jpeg jpeg2k kerberos lame latex ldap libffi libnotify lirc mad matroska midi mikmod mmx mmx2 mmxext mp3 mp4 mpeg mudflap multilib ncurses new-login nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin ogg opengl openmp pam pcre pdf perl php png ppds pppd python qt3support quicktime readline reflection samba sdl session skins spell spl sqlite sse sse2 sse3 ssl ssse3 startup-notification svg symlink sysfs tcpd threads tiff truetype unicode usb vorbis webkit wmf wxwindows x264 xcb xcomposite xine xinerama xml xorg xscreensaver xulrunner xv xvid xvmc zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="en en_US" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
The icedtea6 plugin works with Epiphany 2.24.3.
This still happens in Firefox 3.0.14
How about icedtea6-1.6.1-r1?
and/or icedtea6-bin-1.6.1?
Still crashes with icedtea6-1.6.1 and firefox-3.0.14
How about 1.6.2, and firefox 3.5
I am on break now, and away from my desktop. I'll follow up in the new year.
In Firefox 3.5.6, http://www.javatester.org/version.html just shows a grey box. I am using IcedTea6 1.5.
I am currently running the emerge of IcedTea6 1.6.2-r1. I'll report back tomorrow.
Well, it seems IcedTea6 1.6.2-r1 works fine with Firefox 3.5.6
