Actually, on my system, the RealPlayer RPM automatically created those
symlinks in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins so Firefox picked them up by
itself.

To make sure the plugins are seen by Firefox, just fire up Firefox then,
instead of an URL, type "about:plugins" (without quotes) and you should
be able to see something like this, among other things:

Helix DNA Plugin: RealPlayer G2 Plug-In Compatible
        File name: nphelix.so
        Helix DNA Plugin: RealPlayer G2 Plug-In Compatible version
        0.4.0.432 built with gcc 3.2.0 on Sep 24 2004
