Uhm ...
Houston, seems we've got a problem :-)

[hint: mp3 thing up over there]

And your RealPlayer can't play it?

Firefox called up the mplayer plugin, which worked just fine. My problem with this is more religious than anything else.

Why, for heavens sake, should the president of RedHat, who does not ship an mp3 capability in any distribution for patent reasons, allow this to be offered on the net in that format, when there are good alternatives in the form of ogg, which I suspect FC5 comes preconfigured to play just fine.

That it was allowed, speaks volumes for his 'commitment' to open source.
