=3D Do you really need the ICA Citrix plugin? =9ACan you get by

Yes, I really do need Citrix... The remote access "solution" I'm trying to =

was designed by people I don't even know, much less have any influence over.
Also, using linux-firefox is the ONLY solution for Java plugin on amd64 -- =

native plugin is not available on 64-bit platforms due to an unfortunate bu=

(Sun's -- a pointer is cast to an explicitly 32-bit integer), which FreeBSD=

are yet to locally patch:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=3D4802695
The patch is rather trivial, but it is a different subject...
So, what about linux-jdk and linux-firefox? Is not our linuxulator somewhat=

incomplete without this combo working perfectly?
I can add more details -- linux-sun-jdk16 never works (hangs). linux-sun-jd=
k15=20
works sometimes (about 40% of the time), other times it dumps "java core" i=
n=20
the form of an hs_err*.log file and the browser needs restarting...
Once again, does anybody have Java plugin working in linux-firefox?
