At one time I was able to load an applet on Morningstar.com…
Now neither FF3.5 or Opera will do it though both did before. As far as I can see I have the correct Java installed. If I use the live CD which has only the basic Java Morningstar calls for a plugin, if you click on it it says no plugin found use manual install. If you click on manual install it takes you to this web
site. Download Java software for Linux from Sun Microsystems
In regular Suse 11.1 it does not call for a plugin, probably because it is there, yet the applets do not load. This is the only problem with Suse 11.1 that I have every thing else works fine.
I am able to do this on another Linux OS, but I am really liking Suse.

can you give a direct link to the page with the applet?
I am on 64bit 11.1 and will have a look for you.

Trouble is Mark the Morningstar page is a login thingy so you can’t actually see the issue page. . . I was helping @rosswmcgee in another thread where we addressed this. I’m kinda stuck helping because I’m not _64 - so I suggested a new thread because we were off topic in the other thread.
I did suggest to @rosswmcgee to try and find a page we could all see where the same was happening. Certainly though any help we can offer would be good and appreciated.

Will have a delve and see if there are any logs.
I am seeing:
(firefox:23701): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_io_channel_flush: assertion `channel !=
NULL’ failed
IcedTeaPlugin.cc:3855: Error: Failed to flush bytes to output channel
In my
~/.xsession-errors
file as soon as I click on a game so maybe that has something to do with it.

This is exactly what happens to me as well, the java does what it is suppossed to do except the final display action. Sorry I have no idea what the wiki, scrooge idea means, I have looked all over the pages and still have no idea what to do. Meantime it seems to me that in software management something needs to be added, or subtracted or both but I do not know what as I have tried getting down to the minimum and then adding back in. I did have this working before,just by adding Java 1.6 that fixed it. But something changed.
Sorry I have no idea what the wiki, scrooge
It’s @FeatherMonkey’s signature. Just saying: ‘Look around, you might be able to find the answer yourself’. It’s not really part of the answer/response.
What caf said is correct it is outdated java 1.6 x86_64 should have web support in it for years it didn’t.
Now you need to replace openjdk with or install and use the alternatives switch as long as you run update it will give you the support that is needed. You also need the plugin package.
Here you can test to see if your java is installed properly. Mine is not.
Will head for Lake Tahoe tommorow for a day at the beach, and start on this again Monday. It seems that the Java help does not cover Suse 11.1 or FF 3.5, there is an option I have not tried which is to contact their chat help. That will have to wait until I have some time.

I sincerely hope that you changed that very promptly. This is a public forum.
