Description Peter Simons 2003-01-28 18:46:04 UTC
I tried to get the RealPlayer plugin running with Mozilla, but no matter what I
tried, I won't do _anything_. I cannot even see the plugin in the list that pops
up when choosing the appropriate menu item in the "Help" menu.

I have set-up the MIME-type for it and I have chosen the rpnp.so file as the
application to use to play it. No success. Is this a known problem or am I doing
something wrong?

Some questions:
+ your useflags 

+ your compiler flags

(you may need to emerge gentoolkit)
+ gcc & glibc version 
qpkg gcc -v -I
qpkg glibc -v -I

+ realplayer version
qpkg realplayer -v -I

+ what you tried to watch (url that I can check myself)

++ That is a mozilla 1.1 specific issue or that happens to you with the "stable" one (namely 1.2.1)?


I think that is enough for the fist message

please try the new ebuild of realplayer, seemant probably fixed that with the wrong .desktop placements issues.
