Bug Description

1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 9.10
Release: 9.10

2) apt-cache policy realplayer
realplayer:
  Installed: 11.0.0-0.2medibuntu2
  Candidate: 11.0.0-0.2medibuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 11.0.0-0.2medibuntu2 0
        500 http://packages.medibuntu.org karmic/non-free Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What I expected to happen is when I clicked "Click here for webcast" at:

http://investors.firstenergycorp.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=102230&p=irol-EventDetails&EventId=2971678

The Real Player content would play flawlessly.

4) What happens instead is that when the popup comes up the content does not play. When I click "Menu" in the popup, two RealPlayer windows popup where one claims:

"Component Missing
The player does not have the capabilities to play back the content.
The following components are rquired: audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin

Since the nomination for this has been declined for Maverick the importance should be marked as low.
