Ever since I upgraded to woody many many months ago (on two different

OK, I've been using M17 for the last hour and it hasn't crashed, not even
with the JavaScript on www.bigbrother2000.com.
I'm downloading the lasted nightly build, just for joillies.
But what about plugins? Can I get the streaming RealPlayer plugin to work?

I'm just about to try VMware on my potato system to run Win 95 or 98.
Are there any problems to know about?

It's a deb package of its own: web/plug

I can't get netscape 4.73 (tried debs and manual install) to work with
RealPlayer7. The realplayer works fine on its own, but the plugin causes a
bus error when netscape starts up (plugins/rpnp.so). 4.72 also fails.
I tried deleting those ~/.RealNetworks* files ( I think somebody mentioned
that),
I finally have wine running Quicken2000.
"Help" wasn't working at all. I found that I didn't have winhelp.exe or
winhlp32.exe in wine's c:\windows directory. When I put either or both of
these programs in place (using win95 for exe and dll), it gives this error
and hangs Quicken:
Xlib: unexpecte
One thing that has always surprised me on Linux is that there doesn't seem
to be any automatic mount/umount handling of floppy drives (DOS format).
I guess I'm thinking of something similar to the pcmcia card manager that
detects insert/remove events and automatically loads and unloads drivers.
