Steps to Reproduce

Starting the viewer/testing the new media system

Actual Behavior

When starting the Valhalla viewer on linux, it still looks for the webkit plugin, which is not included and results in logs being filled with messages like this:

2015-10-25T15:11:31Z WARNING: LLInitParam::Parser::parserWarning: Failed to parse parameter "show_title."
2015-10-25T15:11:31Z WARNING: LLViewerMediaImpl::newSourceFromMediaType: ONCE (12200th time seen): Couldn't find plugin at /opt/secondlife/bin/llplugin/libmedia_plugin_webkit.so
2015-10-25T15:11:31Z WARNING: LLViewerMediaImpl::newSourceFromMediaType: ONCE (12200th time seen): plugin initialization failed for mime type: text/html
2015-10-25T15:11:31Z INFO: closeFloater: Closing floater toast

Expected Behavior

That I would see an actual new media plugin to test.

Other information

skins/default/xui/en/mime_types_linux.xml has not been updated like the windows and mac mime_types files were. I changed all instances of media_plugin_webkit to media_plugin_cef. This also results in further errors due to no media_plugin_cef being included with the linux version - any mime type associated with this plugin is being completely disabled. Please make the same changes to the linux viewer that you have made to windows and mac viewers.

I also wonder if this bug I'm creating should be added to SL-128 (as this seems to be an issue of SL-128 not being completed), but only the "BUG" tickets are visible to me, so I can't verify this.

In brief, LL still compiles a Linux viewer for now, but is leaving the matter of making it work to end users.
