I did try to install Real Player 10 directly from the real.com web
site, but the install fails. I am quite sure it is because I am using
amd64. Had the same problem on a Debian amd64 box (ie, wouldn't
install).

I had never heard of Automatix before. Just did some searching to see
what you are talking about and it looks interesting. (good info here:
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=138405) I will check out
Automatix and see if that can install Real Player.
