I originally installed RealPlayer 5 using rpm -i <package> nothing
seemed to happen
I tried again to install it using rpm -Uvh
It said that "rvplayer 5.03 is already installed"
(rvplayer is in /usr/bin and is executable). I set up the preferences
as you suggested.
In Netscape, I get an error box:
Netscape: subprocess diagnostics (stdout/stderr)
sh: -c: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching '"
sh: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file
OK
I had earlier tried to set the application to /usr/bin/rvplayer
I did not get any error message or anything, but nothing happened (at
least no sound and no RealPlayer console like you get in Windows).
Any suggestions?
Thanks
