I have a java app that will not run with IcedTea plugins, which
are the default with Fedora. 

I have the alternatives set as shown below, but about:plugins still 
shows IcedTea. Any help on fixing this would be enormously 
appreciated. 

# cat /etc/redhat-release 
Fedora release 14 (Laughlin)
# uname -r
2.6.35.11-83.fc14.i686.PAE

# alternatives --config libjavaplugin.so

There are 2 programs which provide 'libjavaplugin.so'.

  Selection    Command
-----------------------------------------------
*+ 1           /usr/java/default/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
   2           /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk/lib/i386/IcedTeaPlugin.so

# alternatives --config java

There are 3 programs which provide 'java'.

  Selection    Command
-----------------------------------------------
*  1           /usr/java/default/bin/java
 + 2           /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk/bin/java
   3           /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.5.0-gcj/bin/java

The corresponding files exist.

# ls -alFch /usr/java/default/bin/java
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 47K Dec  3 17:17 /usr/java/default/bin/java*

# ls -alFch /usr/java/default/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 76K Dec  3 17:17 /usr/java/default/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so*

Help ... please ...
