Ubuntu :: Can't Get 11.04 64 Bit Alt To Install 64bit Cd?
May 12, 2011
install alt 64 bit 11.04 off cd - get through partioning and then asks for another cd - in this case "Ubuntu 11.04+Natty Narwhal_=Release amd64 (20110426) i'm assuming the alt 64 bit cd requires some sort of vanilla 11.04 64bit cd - where can i download the vanilla version that will work with my alt version. love the os and features but getting beaten down like this - maybe the evil empire will win after all
I just wanted to install openSUSE 11.3 64bit. Installation works fine until reboot request. It switches to console, saying that it tries to load without reboot, screen becomes black, i got a cursor with animated wait-symbol and then it freezes. Can't move the mouse, no reaction on keyboard inputs, HDD-led not blinking. If I reset my PC and boot the new installation, it says that an error occurred and asks me to complete the unfinished installation. It starts auto-configuration and freezes again at about 3%. I tried again and some time it did not start the graphical yast but in textmode. The freeze came at the same position, but it posted many lines on console with error messages. I could not scroll, so I saw only parts of it, saying kernel panic and many addresses.
I guessed that it has to do with my chipset and graphics card, it is a nVidia GeForce 9300 chipset (MCP7A) with onboard graphics. It works fine with openSUSE 11.2 64bit by the way, but it was not supported in earlier versions than 11.2. So I tried to install it with proprietary drivers. I started the installation again and added the nVidia repository and a Packman repo and selected the driver which works fine on 11.2. Error was same as above. Next I tried an openSUSE 11.3 32bit Live CD that came with some PC magazine and lay around and it is booting and works fine!
This was confusing to me, so I wanted to try the 64bit version of the live CD. Which was again not booting. It freezes at some part, maybe when it tries to start X. But it also freezes booting with 'nomodeset' (found it somewhere here), in VESA mode and even in textmode! So i guess it's not X what causes the freeze. But it is sometime at the end of booting up, as far as I can say. I would like to use the 64bit version but I don't know where to search for the problem. I checked every checksum before burning, so a broken media should not be the reason
I tried to install on an Armari Gravistar machine Open Suse 11.3 and 11.2 at 64 bit but both haven't worked, after the welcome I press install, it loads something and then the computer is on the screen black and nothing happens. The 11.3 at 32 bit installs but in this manner I cannot use the 16GB RAM of the machine.
If I boot from the opensuse 64bit DVD (Ver.11.0/11.1/11.2 - its the same effect)-the bootmenu appears-i choose to install opensuse in the menu-now the kernel is loading-then i see shortly the next screen-and then my notebook reboot.I have the effect also in the live-version 64bit.The 32bit version works properly.i haven't any problems with vista 64bit or Ubuntu/Kubuntu 64bit, but the same effect with mandriva 2010.0 64bit.
I've found VLC to be the most difficult to understand by far. I've followed many guides on installing different versions and want to now try VLC 0.9.9, as I've read there's a chance this version might work for what I'm trying to do. I've followed a couple of guides to installing 0.9.9 that were written for 8.04 but am getting errors.
Anyone managed to install Ubuntu 10.04 on a box with Intel Core i7 920@2.67Ghz processor. I downloaded ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso & ubuntu-10.04-alternate-amd64.iso ran md5sum's, burnt them to DVDs & CDs but couldn't manage to install the 64-bit version. For some reason the installations abort. I've got Ubuntu 9.10 32-bit version running on the box right now.
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.
I'm running Natty 64 bit and cannot install Truecrypt 7.0. I downloaded the tar.gz from [URL] and have tried to install it several times, all without success. I've tried to install it via terminal by running
[Code]...
Each time it goes through the normal steps of having me accept the user agreement and the popup which tells you to run the "truecrypt.uninstall.sh" script to uninstall. The problem is that each time when I click 'ok' at the last step, my desktop environment freezes. I'm running unity 3d. The terminal I started the install process in doesn't produce any output.
Sometimes when the freeze occurs I can still move my mouse, but none of the menus or windows will respond. Other times the mouse will be frozen as well or it will just log me off. I haven't found anyone else talking about this issue and I honestly don't know where to start looking for a way to fix it.
so i am trying to install 64bit ubuntu on an HP Laptop that was given to me i know the laptop is 64bit capable as i have win7 x64 on it HP Pavilion DV6208nr laptop
AMD turion 64 mobile nvidia geforce 6150 go 3gb Ram
now the actual issue is not install failed but when i boot the install media it has weird black and white lines across the screen to trouble shoot i have re-downloaded the iso 2 times and downloaded the alternate installer once (which installs but on first boot is just a black screen) tried installing via usb and 2 separate discs (brand new) what would cause the issue? and should i maybe try an older one like 10.04 LTS? i know 32 bit worked before but i would prefer to have a 64bit OS
Downloaded from here: [URL] then ,it is 32-bit and I need to know what all 32-bit libs are needed as dependency for skype to work. I am on Gnome Fedora and purposefully selected static version of skype to prevent installation of libqt4.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.4 64bit, and I would like to run python 32bit.The current Python version used is the 64bit one.What can be some good ways for installing the python 32bit version without compromising the OS. I'm kind of new to this, so I don't really know if I could substitute the python version, or know how to make it available by using short commands such as python or easy_install.

The current libsasl package on 64bit Lucid is libsasl2-2 (2.1.23). However when I was installing Scalix, it needed 32bit libsasl2 which is 2.1.22 or something old. Although I can download 32bit libsasl2 package from web, it requires a lot of other libs and some of them are not available.So my question is: is it possible to install an old 32bit package on Lucid 64bit? Or are there other ways to solve the problem without installation of new packages?
I've just installed ubuntu 9.10 (64bit) on a new Dell Precision M4500 (actually I've made it dual boot with Win7).
I'm unable to connect to the internet. For now, I'd like to get the ethernet card working.
Connection is fine under Windows 7, so I think it is not a hardware problem.
To start with in ubuntu, I *was* able to connect to the internet via the NIC. Subsequently (not sure why), the ability to connect became intermittent: at startup, I would either be able to connect or not. If able, I remain able until reboot; if not, I remain unable until reboot. Now, I am not able to connect at all. All this makes me suspect that the NIC driver in ubuntu is OK.
On the suggestion of a local expert, I manually edited /etc/resolv.conf(originally blank) to contain the lines: search tamu.edu nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (using the IP the expert gave).
less /etc/network/interfaces shows: auto lo iface lo inet loopback
I am having some issues installing Kubuntu 10.10 64bit, I have tried two ISO's from different mirrors, multiple writable disks (seriously I had to go buy another 20 pack) and the install halts at the exact same point each time.I have run multiple HDD checking tools using Hirens 9.9 boot CD, I have recreated and formated the partitions twice but still each time the install will stop at 61% stating there was an error copying files and to check the media.
I grabbed the ISO's from Kubuntu.org and the second one from the NZ mirror ftp.citylink.co.nz in the hopes that maybe the image came down corrupt - the disk check before installing cannot find anything wrong yet it still happens ... its very upside down face
I am using the distro in the title and version, and I can't get flash to work properly either in konquer, or in chromium. I have looked in the package manager and it says flash has been installed. I tried again to install it through the terminal, it downloads a bit, and then it says that is installed as well. I know chrome in particular is supposed to come with flash built in so this is frustrating. How do I install flash and get it working? Never had this problem before
I have a Sony Vaio laptop core i5 2.3 Ghz processor . Firstly , i know its prudent to install 64bit OS in my laptop , but will 32bit ubuntu also run in my system ?
Secondly , when i try to download the 64 bit OS , it shows amd64. Is the ubuntu64bit common for both amd and intel machines ?
Had problems with hard drives yesterday, wouldn't recognise them after I'd installed Linux. Today I fixed that problem (another thread on here, in the hardware section) but now, every single time the install gets to 75%, it asks me to insert the CDROM and basically hangs.
Hitting enter doesn't try to fire up the CDROM, there's zero noise from it. It did this once yesterday but all other tries worked fine. Today it's failed the 7 different times I've tried, in exactly the same place, each time asking for the CD, even tried re-burning the CD, still failing at the same place. It's just after doing something to APT, then storing something (not very helpful I know). Can get a command prompt by CTRL-ALT_F2, but have no clue as to how to proceed when I get there.
