I've been trying to get Java to work correctly on iceweasel (I'm using

see /usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins/libjavaplugin.so, which is a link
to /etc/alternatives/iceweasel-javaplugin.so . my ~/.mozilla/plugins
directory does not contain any Java-related libraries or links. When
I check Iceweasel's add-ons GUI, I see Java Plug-in 1.6.0_20, and when
I do about:plugins I see Java Plug-in 1.6.0_20. In my preferences,
Java is enabled. However: when I navigate to the Java test webpage
(http://java.com/en/download/installed.jsp) and push the big red
"verify java version" button, it errors out after about 2 minutes.

Is there some other configuration work which needs to be done to make
Iceweasel fully Java-functional?

I get the same results here, and accessing a site that requires the
plugin doesn't work. The page appears but the applet doesn't start for
reasons unknown.

A bug in the plug-in maybe??
