I have a few questions about running virtualbox.
1. what is the difference between the repo version and the sun .rpm version?
2. will usb, printer, etc. be available to the guest os?
3. Will my computer be able to handle running 2 os? after upgrade I will have a p4, 1g ram (333 ddr), and a 250g hard drdive.
IMy goal is to install WinXP and to help test new version of openSUSE with openbox.
Sometimes a kernel image seems to have the same version as the backported kernel image, for example:
linux-image-2.6.32-bpo.5-amd64
linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64
What are the differences between the two?
I have a fedora 11 with kernel package: kernel-PAE-2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11.i686
I would like to install the devel package for this kernel version, but I can't find it, because in the fedora repo there is only the original kernel (2.6.29.4....) and in the updates repo there is only the newest kernel package (2.6.30....)
Where can I find the packages which are between the fedora and update repos' versions?
I run zypper up regularly against the 4.3 repo and supposedly the latest stable version is 4.3.5. However, after the latest update I am still showing 4.3.4r2.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhich version of KDM is in the Lucid repository? Also, if using KDM in Lucid, is the following configuration of VTs possible?
VT 1-4 getty
VT 5-7 KDM
VT 8-9 free
VT 10-12 logs
Is it possible to check out the log as well when you are checking out a version from some repo. For instance this is a game I like :-
[Code]...
The game is called dawn-rpg and one can find about it at dawn-rpg.sourceforge.net but that's not what I want to talk about. The thing it would be so much more convenient for me if instead of going to the svn mirror or whatever it is and checking out the log, it was local. I know I could do something like this :-
svn log > svnlog150611.txt
This would download the log file and put the contents in some text file I have named as svnlog150611.txt . The problem with this way of doing things is that each time I have to check out I would have to create a new txt file with that date. If there was a way one could check out the log as well when checking out a new version/release it would be nice. Its also possible that this might be already be there and there might be another command to use locally that I am not aware about. In that case, would look forward to people to share the same.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am running Ubuntu 9.04 at work and have a sudden need to install a newer version of python-support (> 0.9.0) than is currently available in the repo (0.8.7) for my Ubuntu version. Upgrading to 9.10 is not an option as we are planning to jump to 10.04 LTS in the next few months and I am unable (unwilling) to mess with a complete upgrade prior. Is it possible for me to upgrade to the newest version of python-support - or is this package OS version specific? Assuming it's possible, how might I go about the process of upgrading?

Which LXDE version of Linux has the newest version of Firefox and Open Office included?
I am looking for an iso file, and I am trying to run this off of a live CD for now. So I want a light version of Linux, probably LXDE, or if not, then probably XFCE. But I need a new version of Firefox and OpenOffice included.
Because, I tried burning the customizable NimbleX @ custom.nimblex.net . Pretty good, except it uses Firefox 2, and Open Office 2.3, which are outdated.
And I tried Mint XFCE, which might have been pretty good too, but it had some issue of blanking and requiring relogin after I opened hotmail frequently (user id: mint, password: blank).
The web browser and the word processing program are the most important and essential applications to me.
So are there any Linux versions in LXDE on LiveCD that include newer versions of Firefox (or at least another good browser) and Open Office (oo seems better than abi)? (Again, if no LXDE, perhaps XFCE?)
I just want to download a good version in an iso file, and burn it to a CD and get to work. Like I said the web browser and the word processing program are all important.
So really, what iso/LiveCD versions are the fastest for running on an older system, and yet have the newest browser and word processor included?
I installed debian squeeze on an old computer that I found. (Pentium 4 3.2GHz HT) I installed from the i386 version, but now the uname command shows that its an i686. I don't find many packages that I need using apt-get. Do I need to compile each package I need from source or use dpkg to install the deb of an i386 version?
Can I use the i386 version on this computer rather than the i686 version? Will it cause a signifncant performance decreaes? (I use this computer to mostly do some reading and writing and file storage, no gaming etc.) How do I force the installer to use the i386 version?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've made a linux app that I'm porting to win32 winth MinGW and MSYS. It's a ticker app that reads then renders a text file to a pixmap (a tall single-line image), then it kind of scrolls the pixmap by drawing a part of it to a drawing_area, using gdk_draw_drawable() within a timeout handler set by g_timeout_add().
The problem is it works fine on linux (the scrolling is really smooth and that's the goal) but the win version is choppy and uses at least 90% of cpu resources (vs 15% with linux) like there is a big performance problem. And I'm not even sure that double buffering is set. Is it related to some mingw config or drawing_area stuff or gtk for win?
