The real-time quote system used by my brokerage house requires a “Java
Runtime Environment” plug in. I think it was installed with FireFox 3.
The error message also indicates I may not be able to get real-time
quotes because of a popup blocker.
Which possibility should I work on first?
How do I turn off the popup blocker for this one application?
How do I tell if the Java Runtime plug-in is installed?
The java is only 32-bit. If you have 64-bit system you will have a heck
of a time trying to get it to work (I gave eventually gave up). The
nsplugginwrapper won’t work with java (AFAIK).

That’s OK. I am using my travelling laptop. I don’t update it much
because it uses a modem. Broadband but low speed so mostly I forget to
update. Currently I’m at ‘my birthday celebrations’
(http://www.conradjupiters.com.au/) so as you can imagine from the link
– It’s 4 a.m. and I’m too busy to care rotfl!
Thank everyone for the helpful advice. caf4926 suggested I look to see
if the plug-in is listed. It is not.
Others indicated the type of system might be important. openSUSE 11.0
(boxed version) is running on an AMD Sempron 2500+ 64 processor with
1.25gb memory and a 40 gb hard drive devoted solely to openSUSE. If it
matters, the main board is a Gigabyte K8 Triton (GA-K8VM800M (rev 2.0))
I am new to openSUSE so what should I install to get the functionality
I need? Will it be on the installation disk or do I have to get it from
an online repository? Any advice would be appreciated.
Is your version of opensuse 64 bit? IF so you will either need to use
the openjdk plugin, or a new jre update from Sun
(jre-6u12-ea-bin-b02-linux-amd64-08_dec_2008.bin) This has full 64 bit
support, just simlink (you may have to research this if your new to
linux) this file /jre1.6.0_12/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so to your browser
plugins folder and it’s done.
It’s working great.
Regards Peter.
