Ubuntu :: Virtual Box 4.06 Installed In 11.04 - CD / DVD Not Detected
May 16, 2011
Just installed Virtual Box 4.06 in Ubuntu 11.04 But couldn't able to figure out some problems. Host is Ubuntu 11.04 in that have installed Windows XP as (guest)
1. USB detecting in Ubuntu BUT NOT in Virtual Win XP
2. After when I installed (Devices-guest additions....) CD/DVD Rom is not being detected by Virtual Guest (WIn XP), when i checked in mycomputer-manage-device-manager-CD/DVD ROM, it says VBOX CD ROM. when i insert any dvd/cd it won't read/detect?
I have installed (successfully) Ubuntu 10.04 ppc on my powerpc g4 mac. 400mhz, 1g ram. Its the blue model. It works great, but it does not detect my monitor, and I can not change the settings past 800 X 600. I am using a Dell 19 inch monitor. Analog input (not DVI yet) resolution 12080 x 1024 60hz. I believe I need to change the info in the xconfig file (but I don't know to what or how), and I may not be saying that correctly.
I have BCM4113 LP-PHY on my HP ProBook 5230m (14e4:4727) wireless card with b43 driver installed (instructions here). I have firmware installed (/lib/firmware/b43, /lib/firmware/b43legacy), b43 module loaded (listed in lsmod output, dmesg says "Broadcom 43xx driver loaded"), but my wireless card is not detected anyway. The manual says I should see b43 in System > Admin > Additional Drivers, but there is only STA listed there.
I bet some of you do know of this issue A Toshiba Satellite M100-SP1011 with a 1.6 GHz Intel Celeron was installed two 2 GB PCS-4200 533 MHz tablets. Bus runs at 533. BIOS would accept them at once but reports there are only 2.8 installed. This BIOS doesn't allow selecting the amount of RAM for video.
i just installed fedora 14 x86_64 on an external driver now everything works fine except that i don't have any sound comming out of my speakers so i think that my sound cart is not detected or the driver isn't installled (can't find a driver for linux to so i can't confirm)
I have installed Fedora 14 on my new laptop Thinkpad T410 but the wireless card is not detected. I tried to install the drivers but got error. How to install the driver.
I have XP installed under Virtual Box and the copy process is very slow, I've spent 20 minutes to copy 3Gb iso image from an external Hdd. I a way to speed up this process?
I was using a Sony laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 installed on the machine. I have just bought a Mac and I will be using Ubuntu 10.04 as my primary development OS by virtualizing it using VirtualBox.Now, my requirement is, I had a near perfect development environment setup on my Ubuntu box and I don't want to install the packages, apps, setting etc again on my VirtualBox VM.
I know there are ways to export apps, setting etc, but is there some app which will actually create a VDI disk for my VirtualBox which, when I plug in to my VirtualBox, I will get the old Ubuntu on my VM.
When you have a computer whose hard drive is partitioned with one part Windows and the other Linux, what are the concerns with viruses and transference across the two systems? Can viruses infect the windows side brought over through the Linux side (Firefox) or are the partitions completely separated? In other words, if all of your Internet voyages are through Firefox under Linux, is there any danger of infecting the Windows side of the computer? What about when having Linux installed within the Windows portion as a virtual system?
I have checked the known issues and the sticky post, it does not seem to be related. I have Ubuntu as my host OS and I want to run Windows as a guest.
Now, Here is the error:
Quote:
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-190
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing
'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
as root. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary. I have done the obvious:
I still have the same error. I just updated from Ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10, then I was prompted by virtual box to update to the newest version, then this happened.
I have installed bind9 for DNS. I have also installed Apache2, PHP5, MySQL, and correctly configured these together. When I view domain1.co.uk it currently works fine as required. I would like to change it to: * /var/www/domain1.co.uk/prod/ - becomes the root dir of domain1.co.uk * /var/www/domain2.co.uk/prod/ - becomes the root dir of domain2.co.uk
Nevertheless, I have created a the following files; these are copies of the "default" file and correctly amended. the required destination directories are in place! * /etc/apache2/sites-available/domain1.co.uk * /etc/apache2/sites-available/domain2.co.uk
I then executed: Code: sudo ln -s domain1.co.uk ../sites-enabled/domain1.co.uk Code: sudo ln -s domain2.co.uk ../sites-enabled/domain2.co.uk
It is important to understand domain1.co.uk and domain2.co.uk represent 2 Existing domain names I own, and both point to my server. domain1.co.uk currently works in /var/www Why I would like multiple domain names on the server.
I have Ubuntu 9.10 installed on my virtual box and gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.9, anyways I am trying gpg encryption. And for some reasons I can't make it work. I tried example from=asics/gpg.html and also followed steps in net/linux-tuto...-tutorial.html but when I tried the encryption syntax using
Code: gpg -e -r <name> <file> there's a prompt like this:
I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 64bit using Wubi. I had 32 bit installed in a Virtual machine on Windows but I wanted to install it to my harddrive (and wubi was easiest). I'm trying to install Cinelerra following the instructions at:http://cinelerra.org/docs/cinelerra_..._en.html#SEC13Once I get to:autoreconf -i --forceit gives a few errors. Here's a copy and paste from the terminal:Quote:
lee@ubuntu:~/hvirtual$ autoreconf -i --force Can't exec "libtoolize": No such file or directory at /usr/bin/autoreconf line 196. Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /usr/bin/autoreconf line 196.
My questions begin with Virtual Box. I have Windows XP installed via Virtual box. Ordinarily, I hate everything about windows, but unfortunately some things related to my job I am still in need of having some access to some form of Windows. I am wanting it to recognize all of my multiple hard drives that are installed on this system, 4 of them to be exact, so that I can utilize files from all of them.
Running Fedora 10, I installed CentOS 5 in Virtualbox, but I can't ping the Virtual Machine...
From within CentOS, I can ping my laptop [known as the host?] but from the laptop I can't ping the CentOS Virtual Machine. I tried turning off the firewall on both too... CentOS was able to access the internet through my laptop right away without any configurations too.
Unless someone has an idea to resolve the above, I am also wondering about something else VirtualBox-related:
To see if it was possible to get around the above issue, I was going to install another CentOS virtual machine to see if I can get them to communicate both ways [if at all], but to do so, I think I have to install CentOS AGAIN on another allocated amount of hard disk space. This will take some time, so I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to just create a quick duplicate of the previous installation, if you wanted 2 different virtual installations of the same OS.
I have a Lenovo T500 laptop with 4 GB RAM. I have installed Windows 7 64bits OEM on my laptop HD. I also installed Fedora 14 on my USB External Hard Drive which it has it own boot sector. I don't want to have a dual boot. So if I plug in my external HD to my laptop and turns the machine on, it automatically my Fedora comes up, other wise my windows 7. (I set up start-up boot drive , first to USB External HD and then internal HD)
I installed KVM (Virtual Machine Manger) on my Fedora 14 and I am trying to install windows 7 64bits OEM on my Fedora 14 as Virtual Machine. After setting everything and start installing windows form CD, I got BLUE SCREEN right after "WINDOWS FILES LOADING..." finished. it shows me a blue screen and then it will stop
Questions:
1- How can I fix that problem? 2- Is ther way to make a Virtual Machine on my Fedora using my exiting installed windows 7 on my laptop HD?
Each time I try to run my Windows virtual box, I got this error: Quote: Kernel driver not installed (rc=-190
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
as root. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary. Which is fine, so I run sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup as requested and then it works. But I have to do this EVERY TIME I use Virtual box. This step takes a minute or two to do its thing, so it's quite time consuming.
How does one access a Virtual Box installed Fedora system? I'd like to be able to ssh into this system (locally) but I've no idea how to do this. There is an ip address of 10.0.2.15. Ping doesn't work (ping 10.0.2.15). Should I just go ahead and assign a 192. address to this box before I go any further? It would seem that at this point the system isn't actually a part of my local network and I don't imagine it would be unless it has a 192 address.
How do I program a virtual machine to auto-start/boot upon boot up of the host system? I am experimenting with SNORT network intrusion detection system and have installed it inside a virtual ubuntu box which I want to start automatically.
apache virtual host to limit the concurrent connections of virtual hosts? Taking into account the host of each virtual user's home directory can also have more than one subdirectory, which should be restricted to a subdirectory. Is beyond the control of the operation of these sites in a subdirectory. Best local restrictions or limitations to the overall situation.
I have spent considerable hours searching forums and googling. I have yet to find out what "lm-sensors acpitz-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1:" is actually looking at. I have an Abit IP35 motherboard with Ubuntu 9.04 installed.
Here is the output from sensors:
Virtual Device Temp 1 keeps going up to 121 degrees and the computer shuts down. None of the others overheat. Also, my bios does not show my voltages to be set like it lists above. The bios in the motherboard is the latest from Abit.
When I create virtual ethernet interface and do a ping -I <v_int> <host> the outgoing address is the one of the physical interface and NOT the virtual interface.Is there no chance that trafic will go out with virtual interface address??Incoming trafic is done well i.e. responds to the virtual interface have the virtual address.
My problem is that I have 2 modems and want to check both default gw behind the modems. If I do a "normal" ping both are reachable over default route even the modem which is not the default route will not work because ping goes over the working modem.So I have 2 routing tables and want to route the virtual interface to one modem the other to the other modem
I would like to configure and SAN disk. But I do not have a physical SAN disk. Is it possible to create and configure a Virtual SAN disk and work on it with virtual machines?I have around 400GB of space in my Laptop.
I'm having an issue with setting up the virtual hosts on my web server. I have 2 virtual hosts (example1.com, example2.com). example1.com works but example2.com is sent to the index file of example1.com. I did some searching on google and it seems the problem might be with my /etc/hosts file.
First virtual host that the second is also directed to...in sites-available/sites-enabled (note port 80 is blocked by my isp so I use 8080)
Code:
Second virtual host file
Code:
And my hosts file
Code:
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
Also I'm using a dyndns.org...would that make a difference?
Can I copy my virtual box VM windows XP virtual-machine files to another Linux computer and run the machine on that computer while I keep on running it on the original computer?
This question is about technical possibilities, not licences.
