java plugin for Debian testing on an AMD64?
 

Can anyone tell me where to get a java plugin for Debian testing on an
AMD64? I thought www.blackdown.org was the place to get it but that site
does not seem to exist.

Any suggestion?

Thanks, Bob

I just installed java-gcj-compat-plugin from Debian, which claims to
provide gcjwebplugin. It provides libgcjwebplugin.so which I then linked
into /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libgcjwebplugin.so.

It seems to try to work, mozilla asks if you can trust the applet but
when I answer to the affirmative it does not work. For example I have an
applet:

http://www.math.concordia.ab.ca/~bob/Timer.html

which behaves this way. It shows a gray square (once it actualy showed
the clock face but was non-functional. Another example that does not
work is:

http://www.jigzone.com/puzzles/daily-jigsaw

which is a jigsaw puzzle that require the java plugin. The puzzle never
finishes loading. Do either work for you Andrew?

Thanks, Bob

so far as I know there is no java plugin for 64 bit systems. There is
the gcjwebplugin, but I"ve not used it.

As far as I know, there is none. At least not for a current Java
version. The best solution (if you really need that plugin -- I haven't
missed it yet) is to run your browser in a 32 Bit chroot.

just for the record, I just installed and tested gcjwebplugin and it
seems to work. But my testing was rudimentary at best.

Hi!

I don't know whether there is a debian package, but icetea works fine
for me on gentoo-amd64.

Ciao,
Olaf

debianized

Granny nodded. She thoroughly approved of such sentiments so long as
there was, of course, no suggestion that they applied to her.

Well, it's OpenJDK with some parts of classpath to fill the non-free
gaps. I think ist should be very compatible, even more than pure
classpath. And it works well for me.

Maybe you should have a look at this page:

http://iced-tea.org/wiki/DebianBuildingInstructions

Ubuntu has openjdk-6 (but I don't know how they differ). Maybe you can
recompile it's package for your system, too.

Ciao,
Olaf

First of all that is for the stable distribution (although I don't know which
one the op is using).

Anyway, if you look at the package sun-java6-plugin you will see that it is
only available for the i386 platform, not the amd64 platform
