Or, is it the actual player you're trying to get installed? I tried installing Tex's Phoenix rpm, and it brought up some dependencies that were required before it would install. It said I needed the following: Xft, fontconfig, libfontconfig.so.1, & libXft.so.2. I didn't bother. I am still using the tar "install" of Phoenix from mozilla.org. Check to see if you have plugger-4.0-7mdk installed, it's on the cd's. That allows the use of realplayer (and other apps too) in your browsers.....works for me anyway. I didn't have to install any separate plugins. I'm using Tex's realplayer. Works in all my browsers (except Phoenix, I would likely have to copy the plugger plugin to phoenix's plugin folder to get it to work). HTH.
