how to install real player in linux professional 8.2
Hi everyone I am new to linux and having problems installing real player,I downloaded the program from the internet in rpm version.
or should i download the tar.gz or other version? wich one is the right one for my system? and can anyone tell me step by step how to install it? thank you |
Hi ricacola,
You just need to give the following command as super user.. yum -y install RealPlayer This will install the RealPlayer with all dependencies |
May I know which linux distribution r u using???
|
I think linux professional 8.2 is a Suse version. Unless I am mistaken (it has been a while) Suse uses yast and not yum.
|
download realplayer.bin and then try this:
su <enter root password> chmod a+x RealPlayer10GOLD.bin ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin It might work |

ricacola....first make sure that u r in the same directory where the RealPlayer10GOLD.bin exists
Then do double check the spelling of the .bin file....the name must be case sensitive The name may differ according to the version of the RealPlayer what u r trying to install...so u have to be carefull about that |

unless otherwise indicated. If I write "whereis" and you type "where is" those aren't the same thing so of course it couldn't find the command. jdk |
