Re: realplayer installer and frozen
I checked and REALPLAYER_HOME was set to the G2 directory (from an old
manual installation). I changed it to /usr/lib/RealPlayer7 and
realplayer started working. Then I deleted REALPLAYER_HOME
environmental variable altogether and it still worked. This would
indicate that it isn't required, but if it exists, it must point to the
correct location.
Thanks.
