Hmm...Im having trouble understanding exactly what the problem is.Secondly, thats awesome. I didn't think people were playing that game anymore.

Notice from moonwitch:
If you don't understand the problem, then don't reply, this is a useless reply, since you think the issue is about a game. The issue put forth here is fairly simple, the user tried to install a media player, and when installing got failed dependencies. Don't just reply that you don't know what it is, to just gain credits.

Well the /tmp/ directory is temporary, but stores your current session as well, removing it and then rebooting would mean your current session would not be stored, and would resort back to default because it never had a session to save, if you turn off save sessions, then this may solve this problem.For realplayer, it seems like you need to install the libraries for libstdc++, including the dynamic/shared objects.They are on FC3 cd and can also be downloaded.Tryrpm -q libstdc++ to see if it's installed, if not, use whatever update downloader you use, I prefer yum... su(do) yum -y install libstdc++ to install it.If problems persist, remove realplayer, rpm -e RealPlayer and use yum to install it.su(do) yum -y install RealPlayerUsing yum should install all dependacy for RealPlayer, well hopefully.With suggesting yum, I hope you know how to configure your yum repo files to point to repositories that contain the rpm files needed.Cheers,MC

Never delete lock files.They are used by some programs to detect when a resource is currently in use.the error message was shown because GNOME was trying to delete a lock file on shutdown, that you had already done.You dont need to dlete temp files, they will be deleted automatically when they are no longer needed.if you run a server, you may want to delete Log files in /var/log from time to time though. (or maybe trim the log files, they can hlp a lot if you crash, or get hacked)
