Currently it (sometimes) works - but only in SwiftFox(32 bit mode).
I'm not sure whether Swiftfox is actively maintained???

Quote from: artificer which browser are you using? although it never gets beyond 94% for me, it does at least work in firefox.
Same problem here with PCLOS. Gets to 96% then stalls with an error message.
However it works fine for me with Mepis 7 + Firefox which I also have installed.
Never tried with Ubuntu - never really enjoyed that distro.

Hit and miss. Tried in Fedora 10 and worked second time after the repos installed the Java needed. Will try Ubuntu again but don't hold out much hope.
Perhaps a jump to Fedora is in order after years with Ubuntu?
Thanks

Load the icedtea (sic) stuff - if it isn't already loaded and it's associated browser plugin.

Have you tried closing all FF windows, then starting a brand new FF - just for the BT speed test?

Yes - closed and restarted FF with a new session - same result.
