Display the page?

I am running on a thin client, using a remote Linux server.  This bug does not
occur under Solaris, but does occur under Linux.  Reproducible on both a NCD
colour X-term and a Sun-Ray.

Comment 1

[timeless]

we already have bugs about NCD and Sun-Rays, please browse through those first.

Comment 2

[Robin Monks]

I could find no currently exiting bugs concerning NCD, Sun Ray or Thin Clients
relating to Firefox.  Can this be marked resolved or can DUPEME be removed from
the whiteboard?

Comment 3

[timeless]

did i specify firefox? this is a gecko problem. search through the other products.

On the offending page I found:
"		<applet codebase="http://www.toronto.ca/ttc/" code="LScrollText.class"
width="590" height="18" >
						<PARAM NAME="MESSAGE" VALUE="Maps and Schedules of all TTC Routes are
Available On-line  . . . 
						 Has Your Route Changed ? See 'Recent Service Changes' to find out  . . .">
						<PARAM NAME="FONTHEIGHT" VALUE="14">
						<PARAM NAME="SPEED" VALUE="24">
						<PARAM NAME="PIXELS" VALUE="2">
						<PARAM NAME="FONTCOLOR" VALUE="FFE500">
						<PARAM NAME="BACKCOLOR" VALUE="000000">
						</applet>"

This code would cause Java to try to instalize, we have a bug on that, bug
114152.  Also note the error that bug gave: 

"swa@abruzzo:~ > mozilla
ProfileManager : StartApprunner
profileName passed in: swa
INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Exec of "java_vm" failed: 2
<
System error?:: No such file or directory
Gdk-ERROR **: Fatal IO error 9 (Bad file descriptor) on X server :0.0.
INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Could not read ack from browser

Duping...
