the .bin file is an installer program. To run it, you have to make it executable: chmod a+rx realplayer-8.0.bin ./realplayer-8.0.bin Install it to /usr/local or something. To get realplayer 8 to run, though, you have to do some workarounds on rh9 (although realone will work fine) What I do is rename the binary to something like realplay.bin and then write a small shell script that goes: #!/bin/bash export LD_LIBRARY_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 realplay.bin $@ That makes it work. Unfortunately the plugin itself will not longer work because it is compiled with gcc 2.95 and mozilla is now built with 3.2. I use the xine-plugin instead. I prefer the player launch, rather than embedd itself. If this doesn't suit you, check out the non-free crossover plugin from www.codeweavers.com. It installs many windows (win32) browser plugins into mozilla on linux on an x86 platform. Michael > > Thanks > josh > > PS. Thanks to everyone who answers all my questions for free! P.S.
