I was experiencing a crash when loading a *.rm stream in a fresh install of realplayer. Unchecking "Use XVideo" as Ivars suggests did work for me. This may be a different crash than others are experiencing, though.
For completeness, I'm using a Toshiba laptop, with the latest realplayer package from the Medibuntu repository. Running Ubuntu Intrepid x86, with default ATI video driver and standard Compiz running.
