Rvplayer distributed with latest netscape (RealPlayer, Version 5.0.0.35) can
be made to work with the latest kernels simply by using the following stupid
commandline (back up old executable before trying this!):
dd if=/dev/zero of=rvplayer bs=1 count=1 seek=657586 conv=notrunc
This "fix" removes O_NONBLOCK from the open() call flags used to open audio
device. There is one drawback --- rvplayer does not work well when /dev/dsp
is already in use by other programs.
