Re: [newbie] Realplayer 8
Can xmms play okay? It sounds like some program has attached your soundcard. Make sure artsd isn't crapping-out and grabbing a hold of your card thus making it unavailable to other sound drivers.

Thanks, Rodrigo I think I remember reading where you could put: artsplay /the/path/to/executable in the command and it might work. You could try that. -s Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
Re: [newbie] Realplayer 8 is now installed!
Op maandag 01 januari 2001 20:57, schreef u: Okay, I finally got it. Here is what I had to do (in case someone else runs into this same problem): As su/root: rpm -e RealPlayer (even though it was "expired") (there is a deps issue with a Realplayer rnp? RPM as well) Set the file below to be executeable. ../rp8_linux20_libc6_i386_cs1.bin (I d/l'ed this from Vics ftp site) follow installation prompts After its installed, do the same for your normal user account Add /usr/local/RealPlayer8 to my $path in /home/darklord/.bash_profile Delete the Realplayer G2 .kde link. Otherwise, everytime I did a "startx" I got a couldn't find mime type error. (I started to use the menu editor but it said it was not installed?) Thats it! I can once again play *.RM files locally as well as access them from web sites. Thanks to Kevin, Mepth, Paul, and Vic! ;-) You can also install the mime types and plugins by executing the 2 .sh files in the /usr/local/Realplayer dir type sh mimeinstall.sh sh pluginstall.sh and restart your graphic shell -- Luk Vermeylen Putse Baan 84 2040 Antwerpen 4 03/295.00.12 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
