    Dear people,

    I had RealPlayer installed, running nicely, included in KDE and Gnome
    menus, and when I said Open to an MP3 file it would invoke RP and play
    it. Recently ran up2date and RealPlayer disappeared from menus, desktop
    and also disappeared from whatever list tells OS what to do with an MP3
    type of file--it now opens Helix player that pops up error message
    saying I should use RealPlayer.

    Found realplayer files several places on disk, tried to reinstall. But,
    it said that RP was already installed and then stopped. I'd be happy to
    un-install then reinstall if I knew how. Wouldn't mind fixing Helix so
    it would do the job. Just want to play my MP3s. Please tell me how.

    Thanks,

    Sam
