what to set my Ram for when installing Windows XP Pro on a VirtualBox inside of Ubuntu 10.04 32Bit.
I will be using Windows to run Adobe Photoshop CS3 & Also Microsoft Word 2007 + Expressions for school.
The screen shot below are the specs on my Laptop.
I am following [URL] for installing virtualbox on Fedora 14 but its throwing error while I run: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I'm wanting to learn a bit more about networking (ok, ALOT more), and I was thinking of trying to setup a virtual network via Virtualbox on my desktop, and as seperated from the internet as humanly possible (preferably no connection whatsoever).
Ignoring a few of the obvious problems (like my little dual core potentially running half a dozen VMs on 2G RAM), I am wanting some guidance as to what programs I would need or some documentation on setting things up.
I have no real clue where I would want to start with this, but I want it as a testbed for future toying with, to learn from, and just generally as something for me to hack at to see what does what, how, and why.
I am trying to learn about networking and am looking to set up a mini network between three bare bones Centos machines in Virtualbox. I set up the machines with a static IP. In the Virtualbox I am using NAT and have the IPs as follows
Centos-1
IP: 10.0.2.15
Gateway: 10.0.2.2
DNS: 10.0.2.3
Centos-2
IP: 10.0.2.16
Gateway: 10.0.2.2
DNS: 10.0.2.3
Centos-3
IP: 10.0.2.17
Gateway: 10.0.2.2
DNS: 10.0.2.3
On all machines i can ping google.com, and yum updates, but I can not ping any other machine. It says they are unreachable. NOt really sure what to do. Any help would be much appreciated.
The only things i need out of it are: mars_nwe (Netware server under Linux) and a reverse telnet server (the dos machine is a bbs) I need the virtual server to support a very old dos machine, and while i COULD use samba for drive mapping, the VNC server I'm useing on the dos machine is a progrm called TINY which pretty much means i'm stuck useing the novell dos network stack.
how best to configure opensuse for this? I'm running the install off of the live-dvd which has quite a bit selected by default. I'm not in need of an x-server or a desktop manager, as this will be a set it up and forget about it once it works VM
my error when trying to run a VB (Virtualbox). Error as copied from error box. install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel and execute 'modprobe vboxdrv' as root. VBox status code: -1908 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED).

I get this when trying to launch a VB after making one with wizzard.
Observed on two host systems both with openSUSE 11.3 32 bit using ext4: When a big files, in this case a 1.2 GB and a 1.7 GB is copied from DVD, usb harddrive or shared folder into a Windows 7 32 bit guest system, the copied file is corrupted. The md5sum has changed and until the guest system has been rebooted successive md5sum tests on the same file comes up with various results... After a reboot md5sum tests show consistent results, but a sum different from the original file.

Finally I am able to start up VB but not able to use the network connection. Thus I am trying to do this:
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup. I get this error:

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu 11.04 32 bit and I was surprised to see that the OS can see my 8GB of RAM not like Windows 32 bit OS.
How does it work? How is the address mapping performed? Is it efficient? Why doesn't it work with Windows systems?
I have a 5 year desktop with 1.5GB RAM and the following specifications. AMD Athlon D400 Single Channel 64bit. Would it be advisable to install the latest version of Ubuntu "Lucid Lynx" 64bit on this pc?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have downloaded the 64bit version of Ubuntu 10.04. I am currently using 8.10 32bit and I want to clean install 10.04 64bit version. However the one thing that is putting me off is that I have heard if your PC has 1GB of RAM or less then 64bit won't run very good because it uses more RAM than 32bit. (my PC has 1GB) So the question is: Does 64bit use more RAM than 32bit?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've made a fresh install with the alternate cd, because for same strange reason I was unable to boot into the live CD.
After the instalation, I have rebooted the PC and under the log in screen of ubuntu 10.04, was a path or line of text describing an error (can't remember the type of error.)
Then the line disappeared, and i was able to log in normally.
Everything looked fine, after some testing and tweaking of the new system, I tried to reboot (to test). I choose ubuntu 10.04 in grub manager, and then there was just a sea of code on a black screen.
The previous release of ubuntu worked well on my PC
every time I exit OA, the game will hang as soon as I tell it to quit (includes typing quit in console)I ran from terminal to see what the last entry was before killing the process and it's always: Closing SDL audio device...I get this problem on Urban Terror most of the time, and I get it on Nexuiz rarely.
Also, sometimes when I boot the game up I get about 5-10 seconds of very poor quality audio and then the audio just cuts out. Can't see anything in the terminal however that looks like an error regarding this.
Whenever I try to format my 2.0GB USB stick, I get the following error:

I currently have Ubuntu running in 32 bit with pae but I now want to switch to 64 bit. all of my hardware supports it. Is there an easer way to switch without needing to install Ubuntu all over again? It's such a haste to copy all of my files and reinstall programs and there settings manually.

Also, can someone briefly explain why there is this importance about "do you have 32bit or 64bit"?! ie. what does it mean?!
i can only get 64bit from amazon's site. I tried running windows version in wine but it failed to work.edit: due to a mislabeled CD, I had errantly installed the 64bit version of Ubuntu and had not known until I was told later in this thread.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIve been using Ubuntu 32bit on my work Dell E6400 for nearly a year now with no problems. It is capable of running Ubuntu 64bit and Ive tried out the live CD which seems ok. I have a spare 40GB HDD and a USB caddy so Id like to install Ubuntu 64bit onto that and start working with that as a trial. Once im happy I can get all the usual things I need for my work (like vpnc) working then I'll wipe the main internal HDD and install Ubuntu 64bit.
Apart from backing up my home directory, id like to backup a list of my installed packages as a list of reference so I know what to add into my new install. Is there a "apt" command to do this and list the packages in a way where if I install those packages, I'll not hit any dependancy problems by installing one before another?
10.04 32bit Desktop edition. I have unchecked the "Enable screensaver when the computer is idle" option and have set "put display to sleep when inactive for" to "Never" but the display is still blanking out!

I don't come across as dumb but here it goes *L* I have 2, 2gig usb pendrives. I have Ubuntu on both of these drives 1 is Ubuntu 10.10 32bit the other is Ubuntu 10.10 64bit. When in the live environment can I tell which bit I am currently running. (Yeah I forgot to mark them) I don't want to install the 32bit on my 64bit computer (I know it would work but still) I really dont want to redo the usb's if it is at all possible.
