Good morning

Can't help with the actual configuring, but this is the sort of thing I was
getting really annoyed with. (me..not Linux)
There's a bunch of things to try with the "path" and such stuff on the
Mandrake  forums, but I still couldn't get it going.
But thats why I upgraded to a silver membership (never start a sentence with
a conjunction, but it's too far back to correct now) with the commercial
contributions. I now have Realplayer, Flash and Limewire working flawlessly.
Also, for some reason, I can download music and such stuff through my router
that I can't do with gnutella, qtella etc.
