I have not been able to use Acrobat Reader and Realplayer under Ubuntu Breezy until today. Anyway, evince/gpdf/kpdf and mplayer/totem are good enough for me. Still it is good that I know the root cause for the problem now. It is because of the problem with SCIM (for Chinese input). I find out this through the Ubuntu wiki. It also applies to acrobat, just edit /usr/bin/acroread and the issues will be resolved. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RealplayerInstallationMethods RealPlayer 10 and SCIM in Breezy I am still searching for a better way to get Firefox better running under Ubuntu Breezy. It is the single most important program for me but it crashes so often...
