The thing is that RealPlayer, Adobe, flash, and etc. or all linux apps. I=20 think the wrapper is just as important as the x-wrapper is to run as=20 non-root.=20 When I installed it, and followed the instructions, I could use acrobat, an= d=20 some of the flash/shockwave stuff in both konqueror and mozilla. Realplay=20 never showed up in the plugin list for mozilla but I can go to a site that= =20 has *.ram files and click them and hear the music. Konqueror is really anal when it comes to getting rid of kmplayer as the=20 defautl. I can also visit the same site as mozilla and play the *.ram files. The thing is that I moved rpnp.so into so many places that I don't know wha= t=20 made mozilla work. I got the idea from the links in the about plugin link o= n=20 mozilla > help. It was basically any place that locate claimed to be a=20 mozilla plugin directory. It was finally - well, I give up, let see what it= =20 does and it worked. I don't have a clue what fixed it because I was looking= =20 for it in the plugin list and it never showed up.
