Can someone point me to this RealAudio FAQ? I can't get RealAudio
working at all under linux. In fact it crashes my browser as an external
app. I'd assumed this was status quo, but if not, it is a feature I'd
really like to have. (It's basically the only thing from NN4 I miss now
that I use mozilla full-time.)
