Hmmm, not sure what you mean here, but the only way your going to get rm 
working is to use xine-1.1.2, as myself and some others have found.
There has not been much, if any response from the xine devs as yet, I'll 
perhaps check the xine-devel list later,

I guess you mean to play streams within FF? you need the kaffeine-mozilla 
plugin, which I believe is not in the Repo's yet,
Its just a matter of builiding it and dropping the kaffeineplugin.so into your 
HOME.mozilla/plugins or however you have yours setup.

Ric mentioned RealPlayer or Helix, but personally its worth the effort to 
avoid those imo :)
