Thanks for the help. That command (by root) apparently failed: $ apt-get install libc6-i386 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done E: Couldn't find package libc6-i386 So I installed libc6-i386 (and libc6-amd64 for no particular reason) using "aptitude", which is how I've been installing things so far. (I'm not only a refuge from FreeBSD, but from Red Hat, so I'm new to apt-get, etc.) > That is what you get for not using debs. rpms don't have Debians > dependencies. (I know, it can't be helped.

I've only used "aptitude" (which I suppose uses debs), but I'm guessing that "realplayer" isn't free enough for Debian and thus isn't supported by "aptitude", so I was running Real's installer gizmo that came with a realplayer RPM. So my next question is how to get libstdc++.so.5 from an official Debian site, or must I go looking for it in the wild. I couldn't find it (as "libc5" or such) using "aptitude".
