  • Env var for linux guest DISPLAY

    Hello

    I received a prompt linux on a host computer XP using VMWare Player with tools. The host is connected to a network that has attached linux machines.

    I can telnet from within the guest to other machines on the network linux successfully. What I can't do is run a graphical application on one of those remote machines. It basically boils down to be impossible to define the environment variable DISPLAY on the remote computer to something that will allow the remote computer display things on my linux guest.

    Is it possible to do what I'm doing?

  • Creating a virtual machine for Linux guest in another HARD drive

    Hi all

    I have Vmware Workstation 8.0 on windows 7 x 64. This window is installed in the primary SSD (Sata port 0), also its mbr. I also have a Linux Ubuntu Natty x 64 in my HDD (Sata port 1) with Grub installed on the HARD drive. So when I go to start my SDD just windows when I want linux, simply go to the HARD drive.

    I tried to create a virtual machine to access the linux (using the physical disk, persistent writing) as a guest during the use of windows as a host, but so far had no success. Just to easy access to linux.

    I get the message of follow-up:

    Untitled.jpg

    The configuration for this virtual machine as follows:

    Untitled.jpg

    Intel Virtualization is enabled in my BIOS.

    My specs are:

    ProcessorProcessor Intel® Core™ i7 2630QM
    ChipsetIntel® HM65 Express Chipset

    8 GB DDR3 1333 MHz SDRAM

    NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 460M 1.5 GB GDDR5 VRAM

    OCZ Vertex 3 128 GB SDD

    Western Digital 640 GB HARD drive

    Could someone help me?

    try to use "fullDevice" instead of "partitionedDevice" when you add the physical disk.

    It may also be necessary to put the disk status 'offline '.

    This worked in WS before 7?

  • Upgrade for a Netbook XP installation problem

    I have a netbook (with no optical drive) on which I want to install Windows XP Home Edition.

    The drive I have is an upgrade version.

    The problem I have is that for some reason, the Netbook (even if the BIOS allows) will NOT start from an external DVD/CD drive, even when started he sees the drive and you can use it. Other computers boot this drive so I don't know what the problem is.

    I can obviously do a flashdrive bootable for installing XP - my concern is to provide the eligible product if the external optical drive is a little dubious - I have a copy of Windows 98 Second edition on a disc, which is a product qualifies for the upgrade.

    If the installation process does not see the CD drive when I am asked to insert the product calling it, how can I get around that?

    I tried a Windows 7 disc - would not start from that.

    I tried to boot from a floppy from Win 98 and formatting the HARD drive - still did not start.

    Finally, I started from a flashdrive bootable Ubuntu 10 and used GParted to delete the partition and recreate a partition FAT32 and Hey Presto! The cd of Windows XP started...

    In the process of installing XP as I write this.

    Thanks for the help!

  • 1345tx-G4-Pavilion notebook pc: with portable graphics drivers for my g4 Pavilion installation problem

    Name of product: notebook pc HP Pavilion G4-1345tx

    Product number: A9R81PA

    Need help on how to solve my problem about installing graphics drivers for my laptop. I replaced my HARD drive today since the hardware problems encountered an original and I was not able to recover all the files of it. I have download all the drivers from the HP site and it installed without any problem until I arrive at SP61152 (Intel HD Graphic Driver). When installing this error message has occurred (this computer does not meet the minimum requirements to install this software).  Also, I can't find the AMD Catalyst Control Center that I have used before when tweaking performance for my applications. Hope someone from HP can help solve this problem. Thank you.

  • Optimization OS from VMware for skyline view tool

    Hi all

    I was wondering if with optimization pack of vmware flings that I apply to my vm parent is supported by agent volume app?

    https://labs.VMware.com/flings/VMware-OS-optimization-tool

    What is the best practice, first of all I install horizon and then flight agent app?

    Thank you

    Christophe

    Hello Christopher,

    You can use optimization OS tool on the computer that you are trying to capture the Appstack but it wouldn't be very useful because this is your starting point to capture Appstacks and I do not think that you would use the basic machine for any other purpose outside the Capture.

    If you want to use this tool on the Horizon view parent then Yes you can go ahead and use that there is no conflicts for this. The optimization tool would just disable some services in order to stimulate performance by using a Script if you want to know what services are disabled. Please see this white paper on Page #30 http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/VMware-View-OptimizationGuideWindows7-EN.pdf

  • 10g tools installation problem

    Have an interesting question w / the programme YES for all products before 11g. I work in a Government environment and they have implemented strategies group at a crazy level. The last initiative was to disable the Compatbililty Mode on Windows 7. Thus the YES program simply disappears. I tried to change the settings to include the check for a version 6.1 operating system, tried different switches like - ignoresysprereqs and nothing works.

    Until someone mentioned "these products are not certified... blah blah blah..." Yes, I know that. But the products DON'T work. We have installed Oracle 9, 10g, Designer 6, Designer 10 g, Developer 10 g. Ore g. Discoverer 10 on Windows 7. They work. What has stopped working is the YES program. If I can't install this last point is moot.

    Is it possible to use the YES program that comes w / products 11g to install the older?


    Thank you!


    CJ

    In general, you must be a member without restriction of the Administrators group in Windows in order to install Oracle most (and almost any professional) products. As you said, the older products can be implemented on Win7 (32 bit), but with a few unknown problems known and probable. They may also work on 64 bit Win7, but with additional questions. I wouldn't recommend this for a professional/production work, because it can be risky and him more often is not supported by Oracle if you contact support.

    One of the questions YES has been addressed in the Setup program included with 10.1.2.3 and newer. A work around for installing 10.1.2.0 (Developer Suite) with Patch 3 (10.1.2.3) is discussed in the Note 1292919.1 . This note presents a patched version of the installer that allows installation on Win7. However, as you will not be able to get this to work without being a member of the administrator group. To clarify... it may appear to install, but you probably will not be able to use all executables except if you are a member of the Trib.

  • How to resize the size of the virtual disk for Linux guest OS

    Hello

    I installed VMWare WS 6.5 on my host OS (Vista) and have created a guest VM with RedHat like OS.  When creating, I've specified to create a virtual disk with a size of 8 GB, but have not selected the option of immediate creation - it being understood that VM is assigned additional as needed.  But now, on the comments and space use is 100%.  How can I allocate extra space for the virtual machine?  Also, is it possible to go beyond 8 GB, if so how.

    Enjoy your time, help.

    Concerning

    VMware-vdiskmanager allows to extend the virtual disk and use a third-party utility to extend the partition of guest operating system after having developed the virtual disk.

    Make a backup of your virtual machine before you do anything and you ensure that you don't have any snapshots

  • PID control tools installation problem

    Hello

    I installed the PID control toolset and a message indicating that:

    "Error 1401. Could not create key. S...\Software\Microsoft. Check that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support staff. »

    Do you know what I have to do?

    Thank you

    This error indicates clearly a Windows permissions error. It seems that your administrator has given you limited administrative rights (for example, a member of the power users group), then your best bet is to display the error message for them and ask that they install the software, or to give you the rights to install it.

  • VMware Tools installer location on VirtualCenter or ESX host

    OK, so I know the standard way of installing VMware tools on a virtual machine is using the ' Install/Upgrade VMware Tools' when it is connected through the VI Client.  Using this feature, I'm sure that mounts a sort of an ISO file or the image of the virtual machine where the installer can then be started/launched.  Anyone know where I can find this ISO file or installer, specifically for Linux guests?  What we try to do is to get the installer for tools, so we can store somewhere else.  I hope someone can help.

    Thanks to a bouquet.

    On an ESX race you can find them in:

  • Virtual MACHINE created on VMWare Workstation for Windows - move to VMWare Workstation for Linux?

    I have a bunch of VMs that I built using VMWare Workstation for Windows running on a Win2003 Server 7.1.3. The virtual machine is running Windows XP sp3. Can I move these Ubuntu VM to run under VMWare for Linux, if I buy a license for the current version or any version?

    Thank you

    Yes, but with some reservations.  Of course, Windows and Linux use different ways to represent the paths and devices so a few changes to the virtual machine may be necessary.  All that is hard coded in the configuration file .vmx depicting the paths of type Windows and device names must be changed by the GUI settings or manually edit the .vmx config file.  In addition any virtual machine containing snapshots where the parentFileNameHint in the DescriptorFile of disc, so drowned in a monolithicSparse or the first measure not binary snapshot virtual hard drive, which uses a QPF (fully qualified path name), it will have to be changed.  If you are unsure how to do this then I suggest a delete all snapshots before moving on to another system.

    A Windows VM that fall under the WPA will in all likelihood have to be reactivated if the host CPU are not in the same class.

    If you copy a Windows VM for the delivery of a copy on the source system, that you must have and or get the appropriate number of licenses and or product keys for the copy number you keep.
