After I type in "realplay" (or the full path), yes, the linuxplugin doees appear. After two hours of fooling around, realplay does work, but it is not fully automatic. But I'm just happy that using the KDE tools that almosteverything Just-Works! thanks for your help, Dan. Appreciate it. chow fer niao, gary PS: Someday maybe I'll know enough to be able to write up a tutorial [with graphics]. If I tried that *now* I'd almost certainly screw things up completely and there would be even more dents in the concrete outside! -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public Service Unix
