java

I just got a brand new acer asprie one with with linux linpus
lite have been having trouble with my java. I have both java and java scripts enabled but any time i try to play games that require java I get an error message.

 

Is this just a complaint, or do you want help?

If you'd like some help, give us a few clues: like what the error message says, and what game (on the web? where?) you are trying to play.

I've just tried a java game which worked without any problems on my machine, so it's not a universal problem.

 

Its when I try to play any of the yahoo games. The message says :
This game cannot be played using your current settings. Please, try the following:

* Check to make sure that java is enabled in your browser. (learn more)
* If you do not have java installed you may download it here.
* To learn more about java support for browsers, visit our help pages.
I'm pretty sure I have java downloaded because when i go to the java website to verify it says I have 1.7.0 installed. both java and java scripts are enabled on firefox. Does anyone know how I can fix this problem?

 

Sorry to be slow - only just saw your post of early this morning.

http://games.yahoo.com/daily-games/sudokudaily is working for me; does that one work for you?

java.com believes that I also have java 1.7.0; my Firefox version is 2.0.0.14 (as originally installed on the One). aboutlugins in Firefox tells me that java is handled by GCJ Web Browser Plugin 1.4. Is all this the same on your machine?
