MGA6-32 MATE on IBM Thinkpad R50e No installation issues. Ref to bug 22929 for testing at CLI: $ java -version openjdk version "1.8.0_181" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_181-b13) OpenJDK Server VM (build 25.181-b13, mixed mode) Trying - https://www.java.com/verify/ - results in: "Starting with Firefox Version 52 (released in March 2017), Firefox has limited support for plug-ins, and therefore will not run Java. " Further info leads to above java version command, so that should be OK. Testing helloworld as in the openjfx update bug23349 is OK.

It's been a very long time since I knowingly did anything with java in Firefox. I installed this update on one of my 64-bit Plasma systems, then tried the url provided by Herman, and got the same result. So, I installed the java-1.8.0-openjdk-demo-1.8.0.181-1.b13.2.mga6 package, which wasn't presented as an update, and tried one or two of the demos, only to learn once again that I needed the IcedTea-web plugin to run them in Firefox 52 ESR. (As I said, it's been a long time.) Once everything needed was installed, the demos ran perfectly. So, I'm going to give this a 64-bit OK.
