Howto Install 32 bit Firefox with Flash w/sound and Java for AMD64

[Dencrypt]

Swiftweasel used to hang on every java page after I installed this everything is working fine

sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree lib32nss-mdns

Thank you Kilz.

This solved my problem (lib32nss-mdns). Many thanks.

It fixed my problem too. I had just come back to say that I got more information from the Java Console. I had found that each failure was occurring because Java could not find the host, even though the URL was valid. I was starting to think that it was a DNS lookup problem. I did not have lib32nss-mdns installed. Once I installed it, my applets started working.

using

sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree lib32nss-mdns

also fixed my java problems (the red X, loading applet failed, firefox32 freezing)
many thanks!

[Kilz]

My guess is the lib32nss-mdns is whats solving the issue. You already have a flash plugin installed.

The next person with this issue please use

sudo apt-get install lib32nss-mdns

and report if it fixed the issue please.

I had the same java problem, and it was fixed after installing lib32nss. Also had a flash problem and that was cleared up too.

Thanks Sef,
I had already added it to the hardy part of the script. I figured it cant hurt. The more I look at it , the more I see that this is the issue.

Hi.
I have a little different problem with java. I use swiftweasel. In my situation applet load, but when I click in it swiftweasel hangs with no error, and it eats a lot cpu. It also happen when I enter https sites. For example https://www.kb24.pl/LoginServlet . When i write ident and pin and press to log in it simply hangs.

This may be an old problem. This seems to act like chat room applets that require a login, I have never been able to solve it.
