Haven't used it though. RealPlayer works fine for me after starting it with

#!/bin/sh
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 /home/javajunkie/RealPlayer8/realplay ${1+"$@"} &

the ${1+"$@"} accepts a arguement -- in this case a url from my Opera 
browser which calls the script and passes the url of the link I clicked.

For RH 9,  it has updated glibc and kernel 2.4.20-8 kernel which does have 
the Native Posix Thread Library and I believe that doesn't work with 
realplayer.  At least the realplayer community forum indicates that.

See http://realforum.real.com/cgi-bin/unixplayer/wwwthreads.pl

I saw nothing on SuSE though so no idea if you need it.
