Seems to be so in the case.

I've installed the same vers. of plugin:
icedtea-web-1.3.1   A free Java plug-in and Java Web Start for OpenJDK

And, as it was mentioned above, IcedTeaPlugin.so is caught by FireFox,
SeaMonkey, Chromium and Epiphany even)) except Opera.

Obvious diff. is in arch (i386) and osvers. (9.0-REL-p5), but it would
be strange if it really matters in the case...

May there be such dependence that java/icedtea-web needs to be
installed _strictly_ after browser(s) installation, not before?
