311658 2005-01-22 08:22:00 Thanks Chill
I've done that and got:-
[cjf@localhost cjf]$ Locate Real
bash: Locate: command not found
[cjf@localhost cjf]$ su
Password:
[root@localhost cjf]# locate Real
/usr/lib/RealPlayer8
/usr/lib/RealPlayer8/Codecs
/usr/lib/RealPlayer8/Codecs/rncolor.so.6.0
/usr/lib/RealPlayer8/Codecs/14_4.so.6.0
/usr/lib/RealPlayer8/Codecs/28_8.so.6.0
Hereafter there follows another 30 or 40 files, but how do I get RealPlayer to be an icon on the desktop to open when I want it. Chill, I'm wasting your time as I'm about to have installed Core 3(thanks to Sam-I-Am) ,but it'd be nice to know where I'm going wrong .Sarum

311659 2005-01-22 10:02:00 I dont know if its installed......

Firstly, its all case SenSItIvE so 'Locate' gives you command not found but 'locate' works.

Try:
locate real

It should be in /usr/bin or something

Right-click on the desktop and make a shortcut, or I prefer to add things to kmenu (Back in the days of KDE).


Chill.
