I'm running this with fairly-few problems. There does seem to be one ioctl
call not implemented under linux-compat that occasionally causes a core dump.
I've installed the linux-base, linux-lib as well as linux-devel ports, but I
believe one may get by with just a linux version of libstdc++ 2.7 in place of
the last. If you head over to http://freshmeat.net and search for rvplayer,
you will find a link to the RealNetworks download page for this player.
