Hey Norberto...the link was informative( i already know about file permissions though) but are you suggesting that I set permissions on the dsp module or permissions on the realplayer module. I guess the confusion is my fault for asking two questions at once. At any rate; if I install a flash plugin...,the plugin is in the ~/.mozilla/plugins/ directory and I don't see how permissions would help me an any way unless I symlink  to it and do a bunch of other laborious stuff or is that the way it should be done? 

If you were talking about the sound module then that makes more sense to me. I don't need to be led by the hand the full way but just linking to a file permissions page offers ambiguous answers.
