Bug#658410: Java doesn't work on Iceweasel with sun-java6-plugin

[Piotr]

Package: sun-java6-plugin
Version: 6.26-0squeeze1
Severity: important


I have a fresh installation of Wheezy with Gnome.
I've installed iceweasel, sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin, but Java doesn't work.

# java -version
java version "1.6.0_26"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 20.1-b02, mixed mode, sharing)

# update-alternatives --config java
There is only one alternative in link group java: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java
Nothing to configure.

# update-alternatives --config firefox-javaplugin.so
There is only one alternative in link group firefox-javaplugin.so: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
Nothing to configure.

Using a test from: http://java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp I get the following:
