[THANKS} Re: RealPlayer G2 for Linux -- where to get?
I would like to thank everyone for their help here... I've been trying to find this file for a while (as I do not have a permanent internet connection and would have to download the file before I ran the installer). The URL given by AG has been very helpful, and I've finally got the file. I would recommend that instead of people sending emails to those of us who cannot find these things which go along the idea of just install the installer, it'll tell you! that they actually bother to just say thr URL. This would have stopped this thread (possibly) a long time ago, instead of wasting bandwidth. For those who missed the URL the first time (mailing lists can be a little slow sometimes filtering through to people...), it's listed below, along with a little warning (hey, no-one bothered to mention to me before this person that r-player g2 was alpha!). Again, thanx for the information, Peter Ludwig BTW - I can RTFM as some people have suggested... why do you think I asked for extra information?

RealPlayer G2 for Linux -- where to get?
Hi all: I've read a couple of posts in the list about the RPlayer G2 for Linux. However, the Real's website doesn't list it among available downloads (neither free, nor Plus). Is it really available from somewhere, or is this a mass confusion?

RealPlayer G2 for Linux -- where to get?
It's there, I got it, It works... You should get the RedHat RPM version, put it in /tmp and the let the debian installation script at it.

FAQ: Re: RealPlayer G2 for Linux -- where to get?
apt-get install realplayer It's that simple. You will be told what to get and where. Why do people keep asking this FAQ and making it so hard on themselves?

Hi all: I've read a couple of posts in the list about the RPlayer G2 for Linux. However, the Real's website doesn't list it among available downloads (neither free, nor Plus). Is it really available from somewhere, or is this a mass confusion? De G2Realplayer 6.0 is only provided as an RPM package... You have to download it in /tmp (and maybe rename). When you've done that, you can install the realplayer-installer (pkg-name: realplayer), provided (I think) by potato... with apt-get it's easy :) When de realplayer-installer starts, it will try to find the RH pkg in /tmp and install in smoothly on your system :) If you can'f find that RPM, it is available @ ftp://donald-duck.ele.tue.nl/pub/apps/ NB. G2Realplayer 4 Linux is still alpha software Good luck! Paul ~~ Student @ | Using the Power of Linux...

Why do people keep asking this FAQ and making it so hard on themselves? Because this requires that slink users have the unstable contrib tree in the sources.list file which can be VERY confusing the for unsuspecting/beginner. Perhaps netgod can be persuaded to put the installer in his /x archive, even though the realplayer installer is not truely dependent on potato. Peter Ludwig wrote: Sorry, just butting in...
