| univremonster | hello | 03:50 |
|---|---|---|
| Theimon | ah | 03:50 |
| Theimon | better | 03:50 |
| univremonster | ok so what is the difference you were speaking of | 03:50 |
| Theimon | hard to explain things with 1000+ people in a channel | 03:50 |
| Theimon | yes | 03:50 |
| Theimon | you have vmware player | 03:50 |
| univremonster | I do | 03:50 |
| Theimon | with the XP VM | 03:50 |
| Theimon | from some how-to i believe | 03:50 |
| univremonster | yes, 320 Mb I think | 03:50 |
| Theimon | the thing is | 03:51 |
| univremonster | well, actually from help on this channel | 03:51 |
| Theimon | hmm well, there's a how-to on ubuntuforums | 03:51 |
| Theimon | doesnt matter | 03:51 |
| Theimon | anyway the thing is | 03:51 |
| Theimon | you can use the player only to run existing VMs | 03:51 |
| Theimon | rendering your XP DVD useless | 03:52 |
| univremonster | ok, so I got a VM from the website | 03:52 |
| Theimon | when you use vmware workstation you can create your own VMs | 03:52 |
| === PriceChild [n=pricechi@ubuntu/member/pdpc.supporter.student.PriceChild] has joined #ubuntu-classroom | ||
| Theimon | and thats when your XP DVD kicks in | 03:52 |
| univremonster | Theimon; so I have to do another install? | 03:53 |
| univremonster | can't I just go here? http://www.easyvmx.com/cgi-bin/create-supersimple.cgi?filetime=2007-08-14-17%3A44%3A14&hwaddr0=00%3A0c%3A29%3A6b%3A6d%3Afe&vmname=Windows+XP+virtual+machine&guestOS=winXPPro&memory=2048&ide0_0file=4800Mb&ide1_1file=.iso | 03:53 |
| Theimon | well, when you install vmware workstation, it'll install the player too | 03:53 |
| Theimon | never saw that before | 03:54 |
| Theimon | i got workstation going with a bunch of XP disks | 03:54 |
| Theimon | etc. | 03:54 |
| Theimon | but i think you can use that | 03:54 |
| univremonster | alright so I have a virtual machine from there | 03:54 |
| univremonster | but it keeps saying "can't find operating system" or something of the like | 03:54 |
| univremonster | I can run it to get the exact error | 03:55 |
| Theimon | plz | 03:55 |
| univremonster | ok so on starting up I get "Failed to open sound device /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy | 03:55 |
| univremonster | Virtual device sound will start | 03:55 |
| univremonster | disconnected" | 03:55 |
| univremonster | Cannot connect virtual device parallel0. No corresponding device is available on the host. | 03:55 |
| univremonster | Would you like an attempt to be made to connect this virtual device every time you power on the virtual machine? | 03:55 |
| univremonster | Cannot connect virtual device serial0. No corresponding device is available on the host. | 03:56 |
| univremonster | Would you like an attempt to be made to connect this virtual device every time you power on the virtual machine? | 03:56 |
| univremonster | I hit "yes" for those | 03:56 |
| Theimon | parralel and serial means it will try to connect to those specific ports | 03:56 |
| univremonster | then it tells me "No bootable CD, floppy or hard disk was detected. | 03:56 |
| univremonster | To install an operating system, insert a bootable CD or floppy and restart the virtual machine by clicking the Reset button." | 03:56 |
| Theimon | ah | 03:56 |
| univremonster | which is why I was trying to do this off the XP DVD | 03:56 |
| Theimon | when you boot up the VM | 03:56 |
| Theimon | you get the "POST" screen | 03:57 |
| Theimon | oh wait | 03:57 |
| Theimon | harddisk too | 03:57 |
| Theimon | hmm | 03:57 |
| Theimon | lemme think | 03:57 |
| Theimon | you selected the right .vmx? | 03:58 |
| univremonster | yea, I only have the one | 03:58 |
| Theimon | cbecause just now i started vmware player, selected a .vmx and it boots up perfectly | 03:59 |
| Theimon | i think the .vmx you have is somehow disfunctional | 03:59 |
| univremonster | which distro are you using? | 03:59 |
| univremonster | of Ubuntu | 03:59 |
| Theimon | feisty 32bit | 03:59 |
| univremonster | I have fiesty 64... do you think I should force-architecture to 32? | 04:00 |
| Theimon | i dont think 64bits is well supported | 04:00 |
| Theimon | so I should give it a try | 04:00 |
| univremonster | I've done this once...with Java... 6 months ago... it will take me a while. I'll let you know if it works | 04:01 |
| Theimon | its the main reason why i still run 32bit....even though i have an AMD64 X2 | 04:01 |
| Theimon | k | 04:01 |
| Theimon | good luck | 04:01 |
| Theimon | i'll leave this channel open too | 04:02 |
| Theimon | easier | 04:02 |
| univremonster | TheimonAfk; I'm re-downloading... it's 65 Mb so this will really take quite some time | 04:21 |
| TheimonAfk | got dialup? | 04:22 |
| univremonster | nah, but the high-speed here isn't the greatest | 04:22 |
| univremonster | do you know how to force architecture on a tar? I've only done it on a deb | 04:23 |
| TheimonAfk | nope sorry, i dont know that | 04:23 |
| univremonster | TheimonAfk; ok so I have a 64-bit XP VM. Now it runs, but I get the error "The vlance NIC is not supported for 64-bit guests in this release. Please consult the documentation for the appropriate type of NIC to use with 64-bit guests. | 05:03 |
| univremonster | Failed to configure ethernet0." | 05:03 |
| univremonster | and my screen is just black... | 05:04 |
| TheimonAfk | so thats the virtual XP complaining.. | 05:04 |
| univremonster | right | 05:04 |
| univremonster | but shouldn't my screen look like XP? | 05:04 |
| univremonster | not that I'm sure what a vlance is or and NIC | 05:05 |
| TheimonAfk | well, maybe it warns beforehand, which is ok...in a way | 05:05 |
| TheimonAfk | maybe you can check their forums, could be someone else had this problem too | 05:05 |
| univremonster | ok so using Google, looks like vlance is just an ethernet thing. I'm cool with ethernet not working | 05:05 |
| TheimonAfk | so you want XP without internet? | 05:06 |
| TheimonAfk | what are you going to do with it then? | 05:06 |
| univremonster | AutoCAD | 05:06 |
| TheimonAfk | ah | 05:06 |
| TheimonAfk | well, I dont know for sure but you can probably disable ethernet somewhere in options | 05:07 |
| univremonster | I can click "ok" on the error message | 05:08 |
| univremonster | however, my screen is just black after that | 05:08 |
| TheimonAfk | hmm, than I would consult their forums, i have never experienced that error | 05:09 |
| univremonster | TheimonAfk; I seem to be charting all sorts of unexplored errors today... I think I'm going to do a restart and see if that helps, I've changed a lot of stuff today. Thanks for your help! | 05:10 |
| TheimonAfk | sure man, no problem | 05:10 |
| TheimonAfk | good luck and have fun :) | 05:10 |
