Realplayer 8 works with export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 You might want to replace the link /usr/X11R6/bin/realplay with the following script [ all this info should be in the archives] #!/bin/sh export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 exec /usr/lib/RealPlayer8/realplay $* and use /usr/X11R6/bin/realplay in /etc/mailcap [from whatever it was originally] Currently the reason to use realplayer8 instead of realplayer 9 - is the plugin works (in Galeon) for 8 - but not 9 [atleast for some sites] You might also want to remove ~/.Real* files and reregister..
