Comment 6 for bug 529242

@Evan: please make sure that you check with the IcedTea6-1.8 release (or the current 6b18-1.8-0ubuntu1 packages in lucid). It is the first IcedTea release having the NPPlugin built by default. The plugin isn't shown when opening the about:plugins page. It might be either a missing symlink to find the plugin, or some other problem. The plugin itself is found in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/{amd64,i386}/IcedTeaPlugin.so, but a symlink is provided in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/. I've never seen the plugin working myself in chromium, but the upstream author checked that it is working in the Fedora development(?) version. The <email address hidden> list might be helpful as well.
