4KEc is a common core found in various SoCs. According to
http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/Realtek_SOC , Realtek has some MIPS based
chips that supported by linux-mips.

A linux-mips kernel can be downloaded by
http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/Getting_the_kernel . The latest release
is 2.6.35.

The latest kernel RPM of Fedora-MIPS is
kernel-vanilla-2.6.35-85.fc13.mips64el.rpm that can be downloaded from
http://lazyfai.dyndns.org/Fedora-13-RPMS-MIPS/Packages/ . However,
whatever version it is, it is not for your player. Currently Fedora-MIPS
kernel can boot only on Loongson2F-based nettops and netbooks.
Find and build a suitable kernel for your player from linux-mips.org,
not from Fedora-MIPS. And, the user space packages are compiled against
mips3 and abi=n32. I don't know if they can be run on 4KEc. Maybe you
can have a try ;)
