RealPlayer is RealPlayer-10.0.2.608-20041214 firefox is installed in /usr/local/firefox, and I believe everything works but RealPlayer. Shockwave stuff is in firefox's plugins dir and works ok. And I've moved a copy of the plugins dir from /usr/local/RealPlayer.plugins to /usr/local/firefox/plugins, but its still ignored. Do you have anything at all that shows up in the edit->prefs windows to indicate Real is there? -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
