I can't get realplayer to install at all.
I have tried several times, over the course of several weeks, and each
time I go through the following sequence:
----
n7dr at compaq-64:/tmp$ ls -al R*
-rw-r--r-- 1 n7dr n7dr 5802563 2007-08-04 11:02 RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
n7dr at compaq-64:/tmp$ chmod +x Re*
n7dr at compaq-64:/tmp$ ./R*bin
bash: ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin: No such file or directory
n7dr at compaq-64:/tmp$ su
Password:
root at compaq-64:/tmp# ./R*bin
bash: ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin: No such file or directory
root at compaq-64:/tmp# ls -al *GOLD*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 n7dr n7dr 5802563 2007-08-04 11:02 RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
root at compaq-64:/tmp# ./*GOLD*
bash: ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin: No such file or directory
root at compaq-64:/tmp#
----
So ls can see the file just fine, but for some reason, even though its
executable bit is set, I don't seem to be able to run it :-(
