That's funny, I'm running realplayer just fine. I'm sure many other Red Hat Linux 7.2 users are using it without a hitch on this list also. Instead of making false claims of broken glibc, please provide information to show where you are coming to these conclusions rather than random conjecture. >Who knows how many other problems there are as well. This seems more of distribution bashing than anything. If you have found a legitimate bug in glibc, provide the evidence of that, and we will look into it. So far I have seen nothing. And... avifile works fine. Anyone can easily verify that, as it compiles and runs very nicely. Runs better than the other player I was using also. Not possible to debug a problem which doesn't seem to be reproduceable. Again however, if you can give detailed information on how to reproduce this alleged problem, using any release of Red Hat Linux, and explain how and why you think it is a glibc bug, with valid facts, and not just "it don't work", then you can perhaps get a better answer on how to fix the problem that only you are experiencing. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike A.
