</I>And the icedtea-web plugin from the Mageia 2 repositories works with 
openjdk 1.6.x, not 1.7.x. I'm told by one of the Mageia developers that 
because Mageia's icedtea-web uses that openjdk, it is not susceptible to 
the zero-day bug plaguing Oracle's jre 1.7.x versions. Both openjdk 
versions have been installed on my 32-bit system.

Icedtea-web 1.3 was released a few days ago. It may find its way into 
Mageia 2 if there are important bug and/or security fixes, but my guess 
is we will have to wait for Mageia 3.
