It isn't completely obvious unfortunately. What I do to debug applets in
the firefox browser is run it on the command line with "firefox -g".
This drops you in gdb, just say "run". That will give you output on in
your terminal and if things crash you can use gdb to get a backtrace
("bt").

If you want lots (and really lots) of extra debugging out put do:
"export ICEDTEAPLUGIN_DEBUG=1" before starting firefox on the command
line and it will spit out lots of extra info on what it is doing.

Good luck,

Mark
