np ;)

Novell has made deals with Real and Adobe to redistribute it as part of their 
boxed SUSE Linux
versions. Note that they're *not* included in the SUSE Linux OSS version, 
that's why I pointed you
to those redistribution licenses.

Redistribution is only granted if you ask them before you do, and if they agree 
(they might want to
charge for that, I don't know...). But you could still contact Real and Adobe 
to ask whether you may
redistribute it free of charge (or not).

Note that for PDFs, kpdf/kghostview/xpdf do really fine.

And for Real Player, have a look at Helix, it's the OSS version of Real Player 
(but OSS is one
thing, the redistribution license depends on the OSS license they have chosen).
