This may not be entirely relevant to your problem, but it's worth a check. |

The fonts provided by the corefonts package are _badly_ corrupted, and |
| 10 |
largely out-dated (it would even be worth to file a bug). For example, |
| 11 |
if you make any GTK+ application use them (like any Xfce module or |
| 12 |
emelFM2), it will display boxes instead of text. |

So, check to make sure that Realplayer doesn't use Arial or something |
| 15 |
similar. If it does, get your hands on the MS fonts from an existing |
| 16 |
Windows installation, install them manually, remove corefonts and |
| 17 |
check that the paths conform in xorg.conf and the xfs config file (if |
| 18 |
you use the latter). |
