RealPlayer needs to be able to find a few shared objects (.so).
Check to see if you have and LD_LIBRARY_PATH env. variable pointing at
the RealPlayer directory.
If not, put something like:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/rvplayer-dir
in your .bash_profile (or .bashrc) and source it.
(Eg. source ~/.bash_profile)
Alternatively, you could write a wrapper script called rvplayer and put
in /usr/local/bin or whatever...
It should look like this:
#!/bin/sh
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/rvplayer-dir
exec /usr/local/rvplayer-dir/rvplayer $1
Hope these help.
