Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMS [FAILED]

Hi,
I am getting the following error while installing Oracle VirtualBox on OEL 5.2, 64-bit.
I am able to see Virtual Machine Wizard from "Applications > System Tools > Oracle VM VirtualBox". Can I go ahead and do 11gR2 RAC installation using Oracle VirtualBox ???
If I need to install DKMS kernel modules please let me know how to do that.

And this relates to RAC, ASM, and Clusterware installation in what way?
Please lock this thread and open one in the appropriate forum. Thanks.

[Solved] Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module

Hi all,
I've just made the jump to arch and have a fresh install. I'm having trouble getting the nvidia drivers to work. I am currently using the nouveau drivers without issue.
The method I am using - after much trial - is:
- uninstall nouveau and mesa lib
- install nvidia package
- remove nouveau module entry in mkinitcpio.conf
- run `mkinitcpio -p linux`
- edit .conf in xorg.conf.d with minimal required settings. Currently:
Section "Device"
Identifier "device0"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
I have installed the linux-headers package and tried reinstalling nvidia again

The only entry I found in `dmesg | grep nvidia` related to nvidia-drm, and seemed to say it was loaded successfully. I didn't save the exact entry and i've reinstalled nouveau now so that I could post this.
Any help much appriciated. I've been at this for a while. Learning a lot in the process!

Success! Several days of trying various things and I finally give in and make a post to this forum. One more attempt - which was only really so that I could add modprobe info to this post - and it works.
I had at some stage installed the driver xf86-video-nv, and this may have been causing the clash. I un-installed it, and followed the procedure above to reinstall nvidia.
I think the main hang up I'd had is that I had not been rebuilding my kernel image with mkinitcpio after installing nvidia during my previous attempts.
I hope some info in here helps some other stuck archer.
Edit: Thanks graysky. I had found the right nvidia driver using the arch wiki and followed this advice to remove the nouveau hook. Much appriciated.

[Solved]Virtualbox kernel module not loaded

I update my system today and when I try to run Virtualbox...
WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (3.6.11-1-ARCH) or it failed to
load. Please reinstall the kernel module virtualbox-host-modules or
if you don't use our stock kernel compile the modules with
sudo dkms autoinstall
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
I already had this trouble before and this was the fix
# modprobe vboxdrv
But it doesn't work anymore
Any ideas?
Edit: This just get fixed by itself when restaring my PC. Sorry

Thanks, it really helped. It's solved.

Do you have any idea of what should be done to fix it? I don't want to use NVIDIA driver from their site neither nouveau, I want to use the one from the repo. If you know how to solve it, instead of only pointing the solution, also tell why this is happening, it will help me and other people with the same problem too!
If you need additional information please ask me.
Thanks!!

About the lib32-nvidia-utils, I just installed because it's written in the wiki http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA#Installing: "Note: On 64 bit systems, For 32-bit programs to take advantage of nvidia-utils you must also install the equivalent lib32 package (for example lib32-nvidia-utils)."

DBD: Error while trying to load the transport provider for odbc. Failed to load the library. System error: The specified module could not be found.

Hello Everyone,
We are getting an error while trying to create an Universe via Microsoft -> MS Analysis Services 2014 -> OLEDB for OLAP Provider under Connection in UDT -"DBD: Error while trying to load the transport provider for odbc. Failed to load the library. System error: The specified module could not be found." We have installed BI 4.1 SP05 in our system. As per earlier posts in scn in BO XI 3.x this issue used to be for improper installation of Integration KIT but in our scenarion Integration KIT is within the BO 4.1 package so no seperate installation is required. Moreover I have checked whether all the driver is present under file: "C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\dataAccess\connectionServer\drivers" and seems everything is fine. But still I am getting this error. One important point is we could use IDT because in IDT still we don't have option to connect with 'Microsoft Analysis Services - 2014 (XMLA)' as we are using Microsoft Analysis Services 2014 version.
Kindly help if anyone has faced the same problem with SAP BO 4.1.
Thanks and Best Regards,

Hello Everybody,
The problem is solved now after installing "OLEDB drivers from SQL Server 2012 Feature Pack". We had OLEDB drivers that comes directly from SQL Server but that did not worked out in our case.
Thanks for your support.

I prepare chronologies in word, and I am trying to do the same in pages using tables and cells. But sometimes I need a cell to wrap onto the next page because the contents are bigger than the page or the space left on the page, but I can't work out how to do it - any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

As far as I know, Apple is free to choose to offer this or that feature.
They never said that they want to clone Word or even compete with it.
Differences between tables in both worlds are numerous.
In Pages (or Numbers)
- we can't sort a single column
- we can't sort by row
- we can't insert or remove a single cell
- a cell can't cross pages boundaries
If I understand well these design choices match :

This type of design typically favors simpler, more elegant approaches to problems.
If you try to design for the 20 percent of your target audience who are power users, your design may not be usable by the other 80 percent of users. Even though that smaller group of power users is likely to have good ideas for features, the majority of your user base may not think in the same way. Involving a broad range of users in your design process can help you find the 80 percent solution.

I have written a binary file with a specific header format in LABVIEW 8.6 and tried to Read the same Data File, Using LABVIEW 7.1.Here i Found some difficulty.Is there any way to Read the Data File(of LABVIEW 8.6), Using LABVIEW 7.1?

I can think of two possible stumbling blocks:
What are your 8.6 options for "byte order" and "prepend array or string size"?
Overall, many file IO functions have changed with LabVIEW 8.0, so there might not be an exact 1:1 code conversion. You might need to make some modifications. For example, in 7.1, you should use "write file", the "binary file VIs" are special purpose (I16 or SGL). What is your data type?

I'm trying to delete multiple pix in iPhoto that i stupidly made duplicates of without knowing, I've tried going into the applications folder and using image capture but i think I've missed a step , can anyone send the correct info / steps pls thanks

again image capture is not involved with deleting photos from iPhoto in any way ever
the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager is very good for finding duplicates as is Duplicate Annihilator
And I have no idea who told you this - or what it means - but re-read both of my opening statements
I was told I could delete multpiles thru image capture by transferring my iPhoto library etc

HELP. 3 years ago I purchased cs3. I had troubles with registering the serial number and used my university's suite instead, and (stupidly) did not sort it out. I am now wanting to subscribe to the online creative cloud with my cs3 discount. Is there any

HELP. 3 years ago I purchased cs3. I had troubles with registering the serial number and used my university's suite instead, and (stupidly) did not sort it out. I am now wanting to subscribe to the online creative cloud with my cs3 discount. Is there any way to find / prove that I had purchased cs3 and locate a serial number? On my Adobe account it does not show my purchase of cs3 (I am guessing because of the trouble with registering my serial number). I have moved house 3 times since the purchase and am unable to locate the packaging or disk. Is there any way to prove my purchase without any serial number or showing under my Adobe account? Please help! Thanks

The CS3 discount offer is only for retail online product, it does not include education or volume license purchases. Refer to Terms and Conditions | Adobe
To check whether you had retail CS3 purchase, we need proof of purchase as well as serial number, without which the issue can not be resolved.

To move to Safari 6 you would have to install Lion or Mountain Lion. Perhaps try contacting Google/gmail about the issue and why they are not supporting your version of Safari.

But in my system, in SICF only this path is present /sap/opu/odata.
/SCMTMS onwards is missing, so am not able to activate these bunch of services which ideally should be present in the system. Hence am thinking to open a ticket with SAP for the same.
What you suggest?

When booting up I cannot get past the light blue logo with spinning disc. I have tried it with the install disc and using different keystrokes, i.e. "shift, s, c, o, " please advise. thank you in advance.

The system on the original install dic is probably looking for the original video card.
It may be possible for someone with the right skills to make an install disc for you with the driver for your new card.
As I recall from my early days of being a Macuser, If you held down a key, (spacebar?), while starting it would open a dialog to take you through a monitor setup.

I tried to download the OS X mavericks and it failed. Now its saying my mac disk is broken and im stuck restarting my computer. I cant get access to my computer.

Hi,
have you tried booting your Mac from the recovery partition by holding cmd-r while booting? If that works, then start the Disk Utility from the menu and try a "Repair disk".
After the Disk Utility is finished, try the "Repair Permissions". Though this is a highly overrated "feature", it might even help in your situation. Do this repeatedly until nothing changes. This doesn't mean there won't be any messages left over.
Cheers,
Paul

[Solved] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module

So, I did an arch base install today, rebooted and after that, basicly I
added kdemod to pacman.conf,
updated pacman,
rewrote pacman.conf (/mirrorlist),
pacman -Syu,
pacman -S kdemod,
pacman -S xorg-server xorg-xinit,
pacman -S nvidia (removed libgl; 7600GT),
wrote xorg.conf.
now when I startx:
FATAL: module nvidia not found.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): module nvidia not found.NVIDIA kernel module!
(EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
I tried reinstalling kernel26, nvidia, didn't work.
EDIT: reinstalled nvidia, worked after reboot.
* Also shutdown, modprobe.. is gone (command not found). So I pacmaned -S coreutils,
* which replaced mktemp with core/coreutils, didn't help.
* EDIT: `su -' solved that
not a clue, help needed,
thanks

can i see the output of
pacman -Q xorg-server nvidia
sudo modprobe -L | grep nvidia
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
edit: sorry
sudo modprobe -l | grep nvidia
edit2: recently replied on a similar thread, user used hwd -xa to generate a xorg.conf, then used aticonfig --initial... to generate a xorg.conf. this resulted in duplicate config entries.
try this.
reinstall xorg-server, nvidia. reboot. run `sudo nvidia-xconfig` only, then move the resulting file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf. then try startx
