Ok ...
It would be nice, if we had another test case for that though, as I do not
have a bank account to recreate the bug.
Furthermore, please follow bug #252510
In short:
Open a console and write
LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK=1
afterwards select the plugin you want to use:
update-alternatives --config javaplugin
and start firefox afterwards from the same console.
Note: Currently, 10.3 installs firefox 64bit by default, so you will probably
have to change that manually. 64bit firefox could now use
classpath-webplugin.rpm to execute Java applets -- but only use with sites
you trust.
Best regards,
Daniel
