On x86 Ubuntu 10.04, the default java console is not displayed properly (cut off) when loading a JavaFx applet. On the same machine, the java console displays fine when loading a Java applet
*** Tested Configuration:
- x86 Ubuntu 10.04
- Firefox 17
- jre8-pit build (b500)

*** Steps to reproduce:
0) Install jre8-pit build specified above on x86 Ubuntu 10.04
1) Configure Firefox 17 to use the plugin in step 0
2) Enable 'show console'
3) Use Firefox to load a java applet
You should see the java console displayed properly. Close browser to terminate the applet
4) Use Firefox to load a javafx applet, e.g. javafx 8 sample applet
http://jre.us.oracle.com/java/re/javafx/8.0/promoted/ea/b65/binaries/linux-i586/javafx-samples-8.0.0-ea/Calculator.html
If you see the java console is not displayed properly, the issue is reproducible
See attached screenshots on the same machine, same firefox browser, same tested jre build
- with java applet, java console displays properly
- with javafx applet, java console format is incorrect
