WebEx Setup in Linux

While it is expected that WebEx works with no problem on Windows, for the Linux there are sometimes problems in starting it and having it recognize the audio devices correctly. Here are my steps to get this working. Please note that getting audio to work is even harder, but not strictly necessary as you can call into the conference using your telephone:

1. Does it work already. Try: http://www.webex.com/test-meeting.html and give some random name and mail adress. If Java startup but your browser tells to activate it, do that.
2. Try it out with Firefox instead of Chrome. Firefox is way more likely to work

3. Following instructions on page  http://gazelle.ihe.net/content/using-webex-under-linux solve all the problems for the Linux 14.04. Note that after installing the Firefox you need also to install IcedTea plugin:
   
   

   sudo apt-get remove icedtea-6-plugin
   sudo apt-get install icedtea-7-plugin

4. If this does not help. Here is information for Ubuntu 15.10. I did not try them yet though: http://dbastreet.com/blog/?tag=webex-ubuntu-15-10
