OK, let's try and deal with your problems one at a time. 1. You say that you installed real in usr/bin/RealPlayer10.bin. I'm not quite sure what you mean by this. My suggestion was to tell the installer to install into /opt/RealPlayer and put symlinks into /usr/bin. I'm not sure why you are having this problem, but we can find out. First of all, you can look in the directory that you installed real into, and find a file called install.log. In my above example this file would be located at /opt/RealPlayer/install.log This file will tell you everything that the installer did. You can post the contents to the list if you like, and maybe we can see if it might have overwritten anything. However, the problem may not be the fault of the RealPlayer installer. It is possible that mozilla and netscape are having problems with the RealPlayer plugin, or something else entirely. To find out, open up a terminal and type: netscape or mozilla If the program crashes, it should give you an error on the terminal, this will help you determine what the problem is. You might want to post this message to the list as well, if you cannot figure it out.
2. As I understand it, you tried to reinstall Mozilla using synaptic, but the program froze somewhere along the way. If synaptic is not responding, you can kill it with the command: killall synaptic or by running the program xkill and clicking on the synaptic window. After that it is probably a good idea to try to uninstall and then reinstall mozilla. This can be done with the following commands: dpkg -r mozilla apt-get install mozilla After this, you should be able to type: which mozilla and see mozilla in your path. You may also want to make sure that no older versions of mozilla are running by typing: killall mozilla-bin After this, type: mozilla into a terminal. It will either work properly or give you an error message. The reason you were seeing the command not found error earlier is probably because synaptic had deleted mozilla, but had crashed before reinstalling it. I hope this helps, Jesse _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca
