Hello folks, I am also interested to install java in Iceweasel and am using 
AMD64 Debian Etch 4.0.......

The web pages talk about getting java from the blackdown site and other 
places....
I looked in Synaptic and I see various java deb files including one billed 
as a browser plugin.

java-common
java-gcj-compat
java-gcj-compat-plugin

etc...  Would these packaged make applets work in Iceweasel??????????

Or do I need to install other Sun or IBM stuff?

Regards

Michael Fothergill
