Thanx Don. I finally got it installed. The problem was that I had to uninstall
another version that I had tried and it didn't work. It was conflicting with
the new install. I did it from KPackage, but I had to do a fresh install
rather than an update. I would never have known if it was the right file if
you had not told me. Ireally appreciate it. You saved me hours of fiddling
around with trial and error.

The "Linux 2.x (libc6 i386) RPM" is the one you want, but you may need
to install from the command line.  The instructions on the download page
say

  4.Once you've successfully completed the download, you will
be ready to install the RealPlayer.

 Rename the uncompressed file.

 Type mv rp7_linux20_libc6_i386_cs1_rpm
rp7.linux20.libc6.i386.cs1.rpm

 To install this package, use the standard rpm install command.
 You must be logged in as root to install this package.

 Type rpm -i rp7.linux20.libc6.i386.cs1.rpm

 For Red Hat 5.x installations: Employ the --nodeps option of the
 RPM installer.Users updating current installations should use the
 --force option.

So, if you are having problems, try (from the console, as root)

 rpm -i --nodeps rp7.linux20.libc6.i386.cs1.rpm

or

 rpm -i --nodeps --force rp7.linux20.libc6.i386.cs1.rpm

Good luck!

I already tried that. The problem is that after I select UNIX, there is
no Mandrake 7.0 in the selections on the next page. There are 2 Redhats
and a few others that I am not familiar with. I am a newbie and have only
had experience with Open Linux, Mandrake 6.2 and Mandrake 7.0. I tried
one of the Red Hat selections, but when I try to install, either as
upgrade or new install, I get an error message; conflicts with ( such and
such) existing file. Ialso tried one of the selections with an rpm
extension and it did the same thing. A version of RealPlayer came with
Mandrake 7.0, but it is expired. Forget the MTV, I want my RealPlayer.
One of the selections on the RealPlayer page may indeed work, but I am
afraid to do too much experimenting because, I am very inexperienced
especially at installing from anything but kpackage or rpmdake.

At www.real.com I downloaded the i386.rpm for Realplayer 7... Is it not
there anymore?
It is 6.5 megs

Go to real.com, follow the links to get RealPlayer Basic. When you get
to the part where you select your OS, select Unix, and at that point
you should automatically be taken to a page that has the appropriate
i386 RPM.

I am Looking for an upgrade for RealPlayer. I am running Mandrake 7.0
and the RealPlayer site doesn't have a selction for mandrake. I tried
Red Hat and a 2.0 rpm package. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
