Java plugin?

[witek]

I noticed that Java plugin stopped working somehow in Firefox. It seems icedtea-web and openjre are installed.
strange, it used to work some time ago. What happened?

Can anybody confirm this in Salix 14 ?

Yes. Unfortunately the icedtea-web package is broken. We'll have to update it.

There are now new icedtea-web packages in the repos. Those should fix everything.

Is it safe to assume (for testing purposes) that RC1 + upgrade is identical to RC2?

Mostly yes. The only other difference so far is that I have disabled the screensaver by default. There have been a few cases with graphics cards crashing with some screensavers, so I think it's better like this.

How do you reenable it? I know I could find out, but I am lazy Seriously, it is good to have that on record in the forum.

Actually, perhaps the best place would be in the final release announcement.

Menu/Settings/Screensaver...

OK but that only works if you're using XFCE. But fair enough (I am using XMonad). I still think it merits a mention in the final release announcement.

No, it's in the menu of every desktop.

Mine has no menu ... except dmenu.
