I am running the current version of Lenny with a So are you running amd64 lenny, or a 32 bit lenny with a 64-bit kernel? I too did a 32->64 bit upgrade (I replaced my 7 year old tired athlon 1000 cpu and motherboard with an ECS motherboard and 5200 dual core amd64 cpu) recently. But I'm on (for right now) ubuntu hardy heron 8.04. Things might be a little different. First of all, do other web videos work in your browser (youtube for instance)? Since realplayer is strictly 32-bit, are there ways to listen to your content with mplayer, gxine, or other tools? I have yet to install realplayer on this new rig. Look for a package called ia32-libs & ia32libs-gtk. The package might be named differently in Debian, as well as the codecs (w32codecs, but I have w64codecs installed here. I can play the NY Times videos OK as well as CNN videos, radio stations (haven't tested extensively, most seem to work). See if you can coax them to play the content in a different way. Oftentimes all you need is a package that supplies the cook library, which w64codecs supplies, so I haven't yet found a needed reason to have realplayer installed here. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
