Cannot connect to Remote Console in iLO using Firefox 3.0.1 on Linux (Fedora 9)

[Mike Schwager]

Hi,
When I attempt to "Access the system KVM from a Java applet-based console requiring the availability of a JVM." in my iLO webpage, I get another window that pops up. It appears Java is attempting to run, but eventually I'll get "Start: applet not initialized" at the bottom. Other Java applets will run in Firefox. I can use this feature in Windows.

I have installed the 32-bit version of JRE 1.6.0_07 on my Fedora 9 machine. At this point, however, I am stuck. The instructions for installing the plugin on Firefox seem out of date- regardless, as I mentioned Java applets appear to work in firefox on other websites. According to Sun's test site at "http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml", I have Java 1.6.0, OS Architecture amd64, OS Version 2.6.25.9-76.fc9.x86_64, Java Class Version 50.0.

Firefox is Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko//2008071615 Fedora/3.0.1-1.fc9 Firefox/3.0.1.

Thanks.
