¿Does anybody know if the Realplayer 5.0 plugin for Nestscape Cummunicator 4.5 works under Suse 6.0? I've tried to follow up the instructions but I don't get it working. Thanks. --
I just tried to play a Realaudio file with Suse6, and Rvplayer5.0 and got a general error.
[...]
It starts to play, then it's stops with Gerneral Error 1.
Does anyone know if it's the RealPlayer, or the new kernel 2.2.3 and the sound system?

Recommended Solution: Customers with the RealPlayer 5.0 for Linux on a system with the newer Linux 2.1 or 2.2 kernels will experience a "General Error. An error occurred: Error 1; audio write: Errno" error message. The current Linux 2.1, and 2.2 kernels contain a modification to the audio device that crashes the 5.0 Linux player. Various customers have written in to inform us of a solution to this problem created by a 5.0 Linux Player user. This customer has sent us the URL where his solution/patch is located: <A HREF="http://www.i2k.com/~jeffd/rpopen/"><A HREF="http://www.i2k.com/~jeffd/rpopen/</A">http://www.i2k.com/~jeffd/rpopen/</A</A>> IMPORTANT NOTE: All customers experiencing this problem are welcome to visit the site listed above, upon their own discretion.
