I have RP 8 installed, but Netscape isn't cooperating. I can invoke it from the command line with the URL and it works. It just won't do anything when I click on the link in NS. Any suggestions/hints? TIA, Jeffrey Quoting Webillo Disperso :

...

I also suffered from this, but it was made clear by somebody at the Realaudio message board: use option "--ignorearch" when running rpm ('rpm -ivh --ignorearch ...'). Are you installing on AMD?

I installed RP8 on a PIII (no problem) and on an AMD K6-II (--ignorearch needed).

Works excellent with 7.0 on my box. Run the plug script that comes with it. Jeffrey Taylor wrote:

The pluginstall.sh script was already run as part of installing the RPM. Jeffrey Quoting Dee McKinney :

I don't know if this is already solved. From my point of view there are two main points: -The rpm for Linux downloadable from Real has some bug that causes it not to expand on non Intel processors. This is solved with rpm option --ignorearch. -With RP8 installed you should be able to reproduce local .ra, .rm, .smi, etc. But for realplay to execute correctly being called from Netscape I had to do some tweaking (I don't know if there is an automated procedure): Modify -> Preferences -> Navigator -> Real Audio clips executed with realplay %s. I don't remember if this was explained with detail somewhere. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brooklyn Linux Solutions CEO" To: "Jeffrey Taylor" Cc: Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2001 7:27 AM Subject: Re: Re[2]: [SLE] Suse 7.1 and RealPlayer8--> --ignorearch

As root or as the user that will run RealPlayer? It should be run as the user, because it adds some files to ~/.kde/ and ~/.netscape To get KDE2 to recognize it, you might have to copy the RealPlayer files from ~/.kde to ~/.kde2 Regards Ole

A guess --- you installed as root. The install shell script put the library and classes in /root/.netscape/plugins. You need to run those scripts while logged in as you. There are two scripts and they are in /usr/lib/RealPlayer8 and have an extension of *.sh JLK

That plus an old install that left REALPLAYER_HOME pointing to a non-existant directory. Jeffrey Quoting Jerry Kreps :
