I am using the latest up to date potato with kernel 2.2.13.  I downloaded the  
G2
player  rpm  from CNet,
used alien to build a  .deb package,  installed it and it is working just fine.

I've been using RealPlayer G2 (version 6.0.4.433) with potato and it's
been surprisingly stable.  I got it from
http://proforma.real.com/real/player/linuxplayer.html.  I got the one
for "Linux 2.0/2.2", not the one for Red Hat which has been recommended
in the past.  Just make the binary executable and run it.  That will
take you through a simple installation program, and voila.

2000-01-12 Thread aphro
provided you have all the libc5 packages installed realplayer 5 should
work. i dont have personal experience with potato yet though.  i have run
it under caldera openlinux which is also glibc2.1 based(COL 2.3).  and RP5
works with slink as well.

Does any Linux Realplayer[TM] work under newest Potato?

2000-01-12 Thread Christopher R. Barry
I can't get any darn version of Realplayer working with Netscape. Is
it known to be impossible with the newest Debian, or do any of you
have it working?

Thank you,
Christopher
