I've been trying to get RP to work with Knoppix and Mozilla in order to view streaming media. It has been a couple days of trying and I give up. I've downloaded several versions including tar, gz, and rpm. I've learned that the rpm is not compatable with debian and ran a converter to get a deb file.

Clicking on the bin file calls up wine which exits with an error code 1. I finally got wine working and it tells me that the bin file is a unix binary and does not work with wine. ARRRGGGGGGG! Why did wine pop up when it was not needed in the first place?

I suspect that all my problems are permission and path related but I've got no idea how to proceed.

Anybody had any luck with RP and knoppix?

Give me fuel, give me fire, give me that which I desire.
