I have galeon ,realplayer, kword,xine,Mozilla and opera installed from the time I had RedHat 8 before upgrade.Now I face the following peculiar problems: Galeon: When run from bash says: "Cannot find mozilla installation directory.Please se MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to your mozilla directory" I tried reinstalling with same result. RealPlayer: The application just hangs.I had the rpm from real.com and also applied the provided update with the same result.I also downloaded a rpm from sourceforge with the same result on installing. Kword: No warning when run from bash shell.No clue what happens,doesn't start,thats all. Xine: I am logged out when I run it.But its variants like 'oxine','gxine','totem' run perfectly. Mozilla: Does not run 'Macromedia Flash Applications',asks for appropriate plugins.But I have it.Netscape 7.1 runs those contents perfectly.Even mozilla used to run them perfectly before upgrade. Opera: Never ran Macromedia Flash Contents.Any help is welcome. If anyone has the clue whats happenning,can you please inform me?Any funda is welcome and will be highly appreciated by me.
