Also, can someone briefly explain why there is this importance about "do you have 32bit or 64bit"?! ie. what does it mean?!
This is probably a dumb question but I can't find out whether I have a 32 or 64 bit machine. Here's uname -a

I demo'd 9.10 32 bit and got my wlan woking using ndiswrapper. Then, I decided to install the 64 bit version and I cannot get my driver to work. Can't find a 64 bit driver for my D-link DWA-130 USB adapter. What is the easiest way to uninstall 9.10 so I can install the 32 bit version? Is it as simple as reformatting the ubuntu partition?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm currently running 32 bit Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop. Apparently, my computer can support 64bit OS. My / and /home partitions are separated and exist on different physical hard drives. Is it possible to just install 64bit ubuntu over my 32bit existing installation? Could I preserve the customizations I've made? what about application settings like chrome, firefox, compiz, etc.? Would I have to meticulously reinstall all of the little things I've done to my ubuntu installation?

I am trying to install the Linux version of Mathlab (32bit) into my openSUSE 11.1 (64bit). With STATA this was at the time possible, having installed the 32bit GTK. This is a program running Java. So since I have both 32bit and 64bit Java installed it should work, no? Copying files to /usr/local/temp as indicated OK
Decompressing O.K.
Code:
su -
cd /usr/local/temp
./install
Executing ./install gives following error: An error status was returned by the program 'xsetup', the X Window System version of 'install'. The following messages were written to standard error: /usr/local/temp/update/install/main.sh: line 86: /usr/local/temp/update/bin/glnxa64/xsetup: No such file or directory
Attempt to fix the problem and try again. If X is not available or 'xsetup' cannot be made to work then try the terminal version of 'install' using the command: install* -t or INSTALL* -t
If I well understand in line 86 the script is calling the 64 bit version of the file gnlxa64 to call the 64 bit version of the program that is not available (as academic version). I tried then the command line version.

I'm having trouble understanding the principles behind OpenSuse package and repository management. Here is a concrete example: I want to install the 32bit version of glibc. (using zypper) Naturally I write 'wp glibc' to see what's available. Output:

I'm looking for the (32bit) tokyocabinet library. I go through all the hoops like I did in the first example. Nothing shows up! How is that possible? Does opensuse really not have this library in any repository? Does that mean I have to install from source? How can I be sure that zypper searches through all repositories?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have been using for over a year now, my 64-bit computer first with Fedora 8 and now with Fedora 10 with 2Gb of RAM just fine. Today I purchased an extra 2Gb for the system and upon installation from the GRUB screen Fedora 10 simply won't boot. It does boot with 3Gb, and it doesn't matter which stick I use for the 3Gb configuration, or what slot do I put the sticks into the motherboard, however if I place the four sticks, F10 simply won't boot. Should I pass a command line argument tot he kernel? If so, which?

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 1 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?
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.
