I use mplayer and vlc for all my video stuff.  All I really need
realplayer for is some audio-only sites I still frequent.  I have
successfully installed realplayer9 in the past but it never ran 
reliably.  With realplayer8 it just works.  If you need the video
portion of rp9 maybe someone else on the list could help you out, been
too long since I've messed with it.
