    SuSe 9.3 comes with RealPlayer 10 which I installed at the time of
    installation. However, it would not play some old 3.0 *.rm files
    complaining that these files needed to be upgraded.

    My solution was to find an RPM for RealPlayer 8 which did play the
    old files. I carefully checked the file list and directories to make
    sure there would be no problems with my goal of having both
    RealPlayer10 AND RealPlayer8 on the same installation. When I
    proceeded to install the RPM with YAST, RealPlayer8 installed fine,
    BUT RealPlayer10 was now GONE! How do I keep both? Is is possible?
    The files seem to go into dirfferent directories which I interpreted
    as both being able to coexist.
