There are some indeterminate issues with icedtea as far as I'm 
concerned.  I couldn't get it to work as a plugin at all.  I did get 
Sun's Java installed and working however (if you want those 
instructions let me know).  The last step of that is to remove 
nspluginwrapper.  That seems to make Sun's plugin work, you might try 
it.
