Hello Spence, In the past, I've always tried to find real player software through the netscape site. At the moment, however, they only seem to have real player 10 listed.
Old versions of realplayer can be found at the following address, which works fine in lynx. The linux versions are at the bottom. http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html If I remember correctly, there never was a realplayer 9 for linux. But, there is an "RV9 Codec pack" which allows rp8 to handle rp 9 media. Take care, Erik On Fri, Sep 10, 2004 at 09:39:23AM -0700, Spencer McLean wrote: > Hi folks. > > I just subscribed to this list, so forgive me if this topic has been > discussed previously. > > I am a Linux user using Lynx and I am having no luck whatsoever in > accessing the real.com site due to its extreme javascripted-ness.
