Forget about icedtea-web. You will need the official Oracle JDK 
java/linux-oracle-jdk18, which only works through Linux emulation. On my 
system it installed java/javavmwrapper to which javaws points to:

root at crayon2:~ # which javaws
/usr/local/bin/javaws

root at crayon2:~ # l /usr/local/bin/java
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  21  2 Mar 01:08 /usr/local/bin/java -> 
/usr/local/bin/javavm

root at crayon2:~ # pkg which /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/javavm was installed by package javavmwrapper-2.5

I tried to configure the jnlp file to work with icedtea-web but 
unsuccessfully. Please let us know if you manage to do it.
