It doesn't work for popular sites like games.yahoo.com. I wish I could
figure out why... been trying to get it working since test3 of Fedora 8.

They transferred all plugin capability to nspluginwrapper on all archs
also, which of course doesn't even support java. I'm not entirely sure
why/how it even shows up in about:plugins

I guess I'm asking if anyone knows what magic is required for that all
to function, has anyone gotten java to work on games.yahoo.com with
Fedora 8/9?
