Thank you for the link I was looking for this.

I did the things you suggested.

I ran the SUN Java test program on the java website in Chromium. I got the error: "Missing Plug-in".

Any further help is greatly appreciated!M

Code:

aptitude update

then

Code:

aptitude install non-free package sun-java6-plugin

Should hopefully finish the java install in Debian Chromium.

Before doing this though.

Make sure as root, that contrib and non-free repos in /etc/apt/sources.list is enabled.

Thanks.

I am looking at my sources.list file now. This is what it looks like:

Code:

# 

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.2.1 _Squeeze_ - Official amd64 NETINST Binary-1 20110628-12:58]/ squeeze main

#deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.2.1 _Squeeze_ - Official amd64 NETINST Binary-1 20110628-12:58]/ squeeze main

deb h t t p : // f t p . no.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main
deb-src h t t p : / / f t p . n o.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main

deb h t t p : / / security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main
deb-src h t t p : / / security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main

# squeeze-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb h t t p : / / f t p .no.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main
deb-src h t t p : / / f t p . no.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main

Note: I had to add spaces to the URLs: The forum will not allow me to paste URLs before I have made 15 posts.

How do I make the mods you said?

Thanks.M

Add this to etc/apt/sources.list Open Terminal. SU to root in terminal. Use text editor to edit sources.list example

Code:

 leafpad /ect/apt/sources.list

. I show leafpad as just a example for text editor., You can use geany, gedit,mousepad, or nano or vim, whatever you have installed as a text editor can be used that you are comfortable using. Or. You can open your file manager as root

Code:

gksu <name of file manager goes here>

Open your file manager as root. Go to /etc/apt/sources.list. Right click on file and open with text editor and save and close.

Code:

# 

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.2.1 _Squeeze_ - Official amd64 NETINST Binary-1 20110628-12:58]/ squeeze main

#deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.2.1 _Squeeze_ - Official amd64 NETINST Binary-1 20110628-12:58]/ squeeze main

deb h t t p : // f t p . no.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main
deb-src h t t p : / / f t p . n o.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main

deb h t t p : / / security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main
deb-src h t t p : / / security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main

# squeeze-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb h t t p : / / f t p .no.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main
deb-src h t t p : / / f t p . no.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main

# Debian Squeeze/6.0
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian squeeze main contrib non-free

After Debhttp://ftp. in bold text . change to your server (I am not sure if it is no or if you edited it) from us to your server (if no is your server, then use it).

Then run the aptitude commands in my previous post.

Code:

aptitude update

Code:

aptitude install non-free package sun-java6-plugin
