Use GUI mode for OEL guest operating system.
Hi,
Another "newbie" question - so please be patient.
We have a VM Server and have used a VM Template to create a VM with Oracle 11g on OLE5.2 - all this works great and them VM operates and we can connect to the VM from VM Manager and login (character mode) etc.
Now... how do we get OEL5.2 to run in graphical mode? I have seen some Oracle By Example posts that seem to show this in operation using TightVNC on the client and connecting to the VNC port for the VM - but when we do this it just brings up the character mode login console.
Any and all help/pointers is much appreciated.
Regards,
Bren
My preferred way is to use SSH with X11 forwarding. It provides a secure means to use graphical applications over a network. Instead of running the GUI application on the remote server, you run it on your client locally, albeit interacting with the remote server. For this you don't need to start X on your remote server and can leave it at runlevel 3. You would simply login from your client machine to the remote host:
ssh -X account@servername_or_ip
It will automatically setup your X11 display environment and you can type your X11 app right at the command prompt. For instance:
system-config-users
system-config-services
system-config-network
etc.
If you need to find out what application is hidden behind which menu option, you could type 'alacarte' to analyze the standard menu.
Of course you will need a SSH client, with an X-Terminal and a X11 server on your client machine. If you have to deal with Windows, you might find the following useful (free):

If you run on MacOSX, you already have the most featured X-windows terminal that exits, and just may have to install X11 from the optional install of the OS installation CD.

I have a dual boot lab that I set up for a school. The partitions consist of Mountain Lion OSX and Windows 7 Ent. I use bootpicker software for choosing the operating system at startup. When I select the windows partition, it take just under 2 minutes from selection to the windows login screen. It seems to take incredibly long for the mac to "shut down and hand over the operating system to windows.
Do you have any suggestions on how to get this timing faster?
Thanks for any ideas/inputThe only suggestion I can make is to look ar ReFind (previuosly ReFit). Startup mamangement is one of its features.
But
It is very powerful so test it for yourself before deploying it. Some of the functions are best kept out of the hands of the curious, or 'playful'
And you never answered this question.
Tell me what the needs are, do the users always need to choose Windows or is this a variable? -
Hi, I have installed vmware 5.5 hypervisor on hp G8 microserver. I have created one vm as windows 2008 R2. I have also install vmware workstation 11 on this vm. In this workstation when I tried to run vmware 5.5 hypervisor I come across "This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit guest operating systems. However, 64-bit operation is not possible. This host does not support Intel VT-x" this statement. Which shows that the host machine does not support virtualization and for that you need to go in Bios and enable it but in present case as host machine is also a vm and you would not find much detail of Bios when you log into the Bios therefore, I am pretty much stuck here. I don't see any information in relation to this. Now my question is:
1. Can we run ESXi inside a vm which is already sitting on ESXi?I moved the discussion from VMware Workstation to Nested Virtualization which contains several hints on what's possible and what needs to be configured to make things work.

The new ibook app and ibook update is designed for iPhone 5 operating system. When my iPhone4 recently updated the ibook app, it created many problems using the ibook to download and read my books. Can I get the previous ibook app back on my phone.
Check your trash can on the desktop. The old version is automatically moved to the trashcan. You should be able to move it from the trashcan back to the Apps folder within the iTunes folder. The update that was pushed out was for iBooks to work with iOS 7 not iPhone 5. iOS 7 was released today.

I have the CANON REBEL T5 1200D, and when i connect it to my mac which is 10.10 the new OS X YOSEMITE it says that it "Cannot be used with this version of the operating system" why does it say that if my camera is listed under the supported digital cameras for OS X YOSEMITE?
Put simply, the minimum system requirements for iTunes have changed. You need a Mac running at least OS X 10.6.8.
It's best you look online to see if your model of Mac can be upgraded to at least 10.6.8 "Snow Leopard". It should still be possible to order a copy of Snow Leopard if so. -
"DD8x". Error message for loading process:Operating system error !
Using the OLE command I receive the following error:
Cannot load the file "File Name" with the loading process "DD8x". Error message for loading process:
Operating system error <> !
strCommand ="DATAFILEIMPORT('J:\ctf\GM\040119-2\dat7.dat','',0)"
lsuccess = IDIACommand.CmdExecuteSync(strCommand)
I get the same error with the "DataLoadHdFile" command.
After the error happens, I cannot load any files in the directory until I
reboot DIAdem.Hi punkmonkey,
I'm curious why you compare the results of the "DataLoadHdFile" command with that of the "DataFileImport" command. The former is a time-honored DAT-file-specific command for only reading the header file contents-- NOT the data, and the latter is a brand new DIAdem 9.0 function for loading all sorts of data files-- TDM files included.
If you want to load a DAT file using an OLE command, why don't you try the time-honored "DataLoad" command, which is specifically designed for loading DAT files? The "DataLoadHdFile" command is really only used to do selective loading (specific channels or rows) of part of a DAT file. Do you want to load selectively, or do you want to load all the channels from the DAT file?
When you get the same error with
the "DataLoadHdFile" command, are you executing that command also through OLE automation, or directly in DIAdem? What happens if you try both the "DataLoadHdFile" and the "DataFileImport" commands directly from DIAdem (no OLE)?

When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

When I print a 4x6 color picture using an iMac with the latest operating system using a Canon MX892 printer, faint black lines appear every 3/16 of an inch. When I print the same picture using iPhoto there is no problem. Any suggestions?
What is the resolution of the picture that you are trying to print?
Go to Image>resize>image size, read the resolution in px/in, then report back, please.
Also, are you in a position to try printing with another printer in an attempt to narrow this down? -

I have a new I phone and a new computer. I don't know where to get the download files for the lates operating system.
To update iOS on an iPhone not running iOS 5 or later, connect the iPhone to iTunes and under the Summary tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, select Update. If there is an update avaiable, you should be prompted automatically.
If the iPhone is running iOS 5 or later, the same applies along with another option which can be done direct with the iPhone.
Would you like a link to the iPhone user guide where this is covered? Apple also includes a Safari bookmark with Safari on an iOS device for easy access to the user guide on the device. -

I'm a retired IT professional desiring to assist a friend who owns a small business who recently experienced very malicious attacks on her computers from unknown parties operating anonymously on the Internet. Because
of her lack of preparation for such events, her future ability to continue to conduct her business was seriously threatened. The incident revealed, to my friend, the need to be prepared to deal with spontaneously occurring problems that create suspicious conditions
that arise with modern computer software before they can be analyzed in a sufficiently comprehensive manner to have an opinion regarding the appropriate course of action for obtaining a permanent remedy. In that, the ability to quickly react on the basis of
only suspicion is the goal.
I want to recommend an approach that involves maintaining an offline image of an operational system that is capable of running any of her computers. This image needs to include all of the software required to run
her business. In that, it is not limited to the operating system. This single image could then be used to restore any computer to a known reliable state should the need arise. This technique will also insure that each computer has sufficiently similar capability
to allow them to substitute for each other. Insofar as image restoration is itself an operation susceptible to causing unacceptable business delay I'm also recommending that each of the identical computers (i.e., from a hardware perspective) operate in a multi-boot
environment where a virtually offline backup can be instantiated via a simple reboot (i.e., an operation that all users of the Windows operating systems turn to when strange behavior is first observed). My intention is to limit the cloned system (i.e., partition
or C: drive) to the operational software. The business data along with storage for temporary data will be isolated on other partitions (i.e, mounted with other drive letters) accessible by each instance of the software eligible for multi-boot operation.
This kind of operation is something that I know how to setup on older versions of the Windows operating system. However, Microsoft has now dropped support for all of those operating systems and my much more limited
experience with the currently supported operating systems reveals that changes to the boot process will necessitate making changes to the specific preparations needed to build such an environment.
Before recommending that my friend replace all of her computers with new ones, that includes paying for new operating system (i.e., Windows) licenses, I need some assurance that the new operating systems are as
good as the old ones in this respect. These need to be relatively inexpensive desktop computers and we're only talking about a few of them. Let's say fewer than half a dozen. My friend is a sole proprietor and even though her business has become completely
dependent on what was once called personal computers she must operate on a fairly tight budget. This especially includes the budget for technology.
The articles I've been able to find on the Microsoft support websites seem to treat multi-boot as a situation where someone is running different versions of possibly difference operating systems whereas my need
to produce a single image that will both run on multiple computers as well as multiple partitions on the same computer. I'd appreciate finding some technical advice that applies to building such a system using a supported version of Windows.I tried the image creation/restoration described by Jared. I don't think it makes much sense to rely on an operational system to do such a restoration therefore I opted for method 3 which involves using a "System Repair Disk". My first
reaction is what a crude tool. The image creation process had no trouble putting the image on a simple network share. However, it appeared as though the restoration couldn't even connect with the device. I then copied the files to a USB drive.
In this case the repair disk said it couldn't find the files even though they were there. It offered no mechanism to even look and see what was there. It appears as though it will only find the image if it is located in a folder by the certain
name used on creation and it is in root directory. Not very handy.
As ugly as all that was when we finally come to the point of making the restore it looks like the only option is to restore the entire disk, which in my case would mean also restoring both the windows partition and the recovery partition. This just
isn't what I want to do. It is also something I wouldn't even consider doing unless it was the only possible way to recover from a failed hard drive.
In summary, unless I've completely failed to notice how it works that just isn't going to work.
I hope there is something better than this. What about WinPE and ImageX?
Absent anything useful from Microsoft it will be necessary to try using other software. Time to try Acronis! I guess. -
HT5639 Are there inherent security risks for installing windows operating systems on a mac?
Just wondering if I use "bootcamp" and install Windows operating system and find out one of the main reasons I switched to a Mac is because of security issues. I also need to know if I can operate the Mac version of "Microsoft Office" without installing the Windows Operating System.
Thanks tech savvy people!
-Navigate100Windows concerns are in Windows, OS X in OS X. They do not co-exist because only one system is operational at a time.
Office 2011 is the OS X version of the suite. Look for it here. -
Video capture card for 64 bit operating systems
We capture video that comes in analogue from a satellite feed. It comes in 24 hours per day. I have taken that and fed into a pci Green Valley Canopus capture card ACEDVio, (RCA fittings), and then I capture using Scenalyer. I have done this for three years, with great success. Since I am now using Windows 7, I have discovered that The Green Valley card does NOT work with 64 bit. I contacted Gree Valley and they admit that it will not work. The EXTERNAL Canopus 110 does work, but it is not reliable for 24/7 use, because sometimes it will shut down. I need an internal card that will stay on all of the time. Can anyone help with this?
John,
Thank you for taking the time to offer a responce. As to the "dual boot" suggestion: I do not know how to do that, although I could research just how to do it. My conserns are: XP is being completely abandoned by Microsoft. I am challenged every time that I have to do a re-install using XP, (I manage 26 computers for a company). For about a year now, it has been more and more time consumng, because Microsoft seems to be making it that way. I am guessing that the "XP" part would be for running 32 bit and the Win 7 part would be for the 64 bit, is that true? More on the subject would be good. Where to find inforation as to using that option.
It would be great if there was a video capture card that would work with Premiere and the Win 7 64 bit operating system. There must be someone that makes one. A guy at Tigert Direct suggested a Haupauge WinTV-HVR1250. I am going to have to call Haupauge to confirm. The biggest thing is ALWAYS that it will work with Premiere, and our Scenalyzer program
