Hi, I've just installed Ubuntu 8.04 in VirtualBox on my Dell/Win XP computer. My problem is that Java applets aren't working in Firefox.
1. Firefox about: plugins shows no Java plugins.
2. Java is installed:
me@myvirtualcomputer:~$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_07"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_07-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 10.0-b23, mixed mode, sharing)
3. icedtea and openjdk are not installed, according to Synaptic.
I'm tempted to completely uninstall Firefox and see if that works. Any easier fixes you can recommend?
