aww come on, you won't notice a thing if you have the 32 bit and 64 bit of the same version of Firefox.

other than that, you could go bang on sun's door for taking an immense amount of time to get a 64 bit java plugin. its like 5 years and counting now. it is supposed to appear next year in Java 7.

Fought this one long time, and I couldn't get the applets work. Weirdly enough I solved this problem, by uninstalling all icedtea java plugins, and then restarting Firefox and going to the page that was not working. And to my great suprise applet works.

I had the same problem with Ubuntu Lucid and Firefox 3.6.6. Also, to my great surprise, removing icedtea worked for me too. Many thanks!

Removing icdtea plugin in Lucid did the trick... plus installing the sunjava plugin... thank you!!!!

Simple as it gets: sun-java plugin installed and all icedtea items removed from Synaptics manager.
