The system does not let me install flash plugin for Chromium

That error means openjdk java wasn't installed correctly in the first place. For now, disregard my previous post and let's try fixing openjdk.

That should fix the broken packages:

sudo apt-get install -f

Seems like the fix was successful. I tried out minecraft once more but it still gave me the same result, which was expected, right? Now do I follow the instructions on your previous post?

Yea, but before you do, make sure the browser plugin is installed:

sudo apt-get install icedtea6-plugin

I don't use java myself, so not quite sure what works with minecraft.

icedtea6-plugin is already the newest version.

I'm assuming that says it is already installed? So now, should I follow your previous instructions?

Yep. Try the games in other browsers as well.

ugh.. it's still not working. it gave me the same message. it seems to work on firefox, though.

If I want to play anything that runs on java i'll just use firefox. thank you so much for all the replies
