Not sure but I think the same applies to mozilla-1.4: I installed RealPlayer-8.0-6mdk.i586.rpm, RealPlayer-Codecs-9.0-2mdk.i586.rpm and mozplugger-1.3.0-8mdk.i586.rpm but couldn't get RealPlayer working in either mozilla-1.5 or firebird-0.7 (RealPlayer itself worked fine, just not from a browser). I had already created a symlink to /usr/lib/RealPlayer8/rpnp.so in both plugin directories, but alas... no go. The problem is that these newer versions of mozilla and firebird are compiled with gcc-3.2 but the RealPlayer plugin is compiled with gcc-2.95. Thanks to Mitch at http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213234 we have a hack to get around this problem. After locating an old libgcc.a from gcc-2.96 on my system, I created the file (see attached rpnphack.so ) called rpnphack.so with the following parameters: ld -shared -o rpnphack.so \ /full/path/to/RealPlayer/rpnp.so \ /some/path/to/an/old/libgcc.a I then copied the rpnphack.so to the browser plugin directories, started firebird, tried RealNetworks' test samples at http://service.real.com/realone/test/ and VOILA!!! it works! Realplayer starts buffering the demo. NOTE: Still can't get comedycentral.com to work though! Says I don't have realplayer installed. about:plugins shows: audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin RealPlayer Plugin Metafile rpm Yes and in /etc/mozpluggerrc I have the following lines: audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin: rpm: RealPlayer Plugin Metafile audio/x-pn-realaudio: ra,rm,ram: Realaudio-plugin resource locator audio/x-realaudio: ra,rm,ram: RealAudio file application/vnd.rn-realmedia: rm: RealMedia file application/smil: smi: RealPlayer audio/vnd.rn-realaudio: ra,ram: RealAudio file audio/vnd.rn-realvideo: rv: RealVideo file nokill exits: realplay "$file" Sharrea -- Help Microsoft stamp out piracy - give Linux to a friend today
