OK, you have a mix with FC4 and F8 ports. The best way for you is
to remove all linux ports, clean /compat/linux and reinstall needed
linux applications (i.e. linux-realplayer, acroread8, skype, etc.).

> and I am running 7.2-stable, looks like linux-f8* is just as good to me.

Yes, that may be a good choice for you.
