Hi Charles, good to know you are getting interested with Kubuntu. I
would just like to add, although, that it would be nice if you
included a little more explanation and social comments in your
posts... "hi, I have this problem, its not working i get this error,
etc.. thanks, Charles"

Just trying to keep a smile and a bit of human-ness left on the list, thanks.

Just noticed the HowTo does have specific tweaks for KDE.

I've just tried this HowTo for multimedia, and it worked perfectly:

If you're pragmatic about using restricted codecs - as you appear to be 
if you're trying to use RealPlayer - I can recommend it.  I now have all 
kinds of embedded streaming working in Firefox for the first time ever, 
including QickTime, not to speak of proper playing of DVDs and stuff.

What I'm not sure about is how Gnome-specific it is.  (It does assume 
Firefox rather than Konqueror.)
