How to install RealPlayer on Mandriva?

Asked by Kaptain1 in Linux, RPM Installer, Linux Distributions

Tags: mandriva, real, player, install, realplayer

Hello.
I decided to try Linux Mandriva 2007 Free, and got stuck on my first installation. I downloaded Real Player 10 for Linux, then i double click the file, it asks me what i want to open it with... 0_o!?
Then i read that i should rename file to .rpm, so i did it and it asks me if i want to install it,i say yes, then enter password for root, then click Install, and it crashes saying: "unable to register rpm file", then after i click OK, it tells me "Error registering local packages".
Am i using the right install process?
Please help me install it.
Thanks!
- Serge
