> OK so I was able to get the http://jogamp.org/deployment/jogamp-next/jogl-test-applets.html applets running under Windows. I'm noticing on these applets that they use com.jogamp.newt.awt.applet.JOGLNewtApplet1Run which I haven't heard of until now. The demos don't work under linux still,

Under Linux icedtea-web (java webbrowser plugin for OpenJDK) is the mechanism responsible to launch the applets .
IcedTea-web it is a separate project compared to IcedTea (OpenJDK) and can be also be built and tested separately.
There have been a known regression in icedtea-web 1.2, compared to icedtea-web 1.1.3, that the icedtea-web jar verifier got implemented a little too strict and refused to run a signed jar in combination with a unsigned one, icedtea-web 1.2 only allow running JOGL if all the jars are signed (like the JogAmp version demo).
This strictness regression is, to my knowledge, fixed in icedtea-web 1.3 that is about to get released, I have been able to launch all the applets from http://jogamp.org/deployment/jogamp-current/jogl-test-applets.html today when using my own build of icedtea-web 1.3.

It would help a lot if someone else than me can re-verify that all the JogAmp applets are working again by using the latest icedtea-web built using these instructions: http://icedtea.classpath.org/wiki/IcedTea-Web#Getting_IcedTea-Web .
Use the bleeding edge icedtea-web hg repository:
hg clone http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea-web

You can check which version of icedtea-web you are using by visiting about:plugins in your browser
