ubotu | VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers | 12:37 |
jrib | that is one package from multiverse | 12:37 |
jrib | did you install vmware-player? | 12:37 |
traubisoda | the problem is a little complex cuz when i tried to install vmware server, it recomended gcc 4.2.3 but i have an older version, so the installation wasn't correct | 12:38 |
traubisoda | and now i can't uninstall vmware | 12:39 |
traubisoda | and my x-server isn't workink correct | 12:39 |
jrib | so there is more to the promblem than "the wiki page doesn't work" | 12:40 |
jrib | traubisoda: what does "my x-server isn't workink correct" mean exactly? | 12:40 |
traubisoda | it have kinda win98 looking | 12:41 |
jrib | did it give you any messages when it started? | 12:41 |
traubisoda | no | 12:41 |
jrib | paste a screenshot, I don't understand what it means to look like win98 | 12:41 |

jrib | traubisoda: everything looks fine to me... do you not like the window borders? | 12:45 |
traubisoda | before the vmware install, the cursor and the windows borders were defferent | 12:46 |
traubisoda | but they were on default settings | 12:46 |
jrib | go to system -> preferences themes | 12:47 |
traubisoda | there's only one custom theme | 12:48 |
jrib | how did you try to do this vmware install that broke things? | 12:48 |
traubisoda | i downloaded it from the offical site | 12:48 |
jrib | you may have killed gnome-settings-daemon | 12:48 |
traubisoda | how can i restart it? | 12:48 |
jrib | lets see what caused it first | 12:49 |
traubisoda | okay | 12:49 |
traubisoda | so after i downloaded and extracted it i started to install | 12:50 |
traubisoda | in the middle of the installation, it said that i should update gcc to 4.2.3, cuz i have an older version, and the installation may crush | 12:51 |
traubisoda | but i tried to install anyway because i didn't find any tutorial or something to update gcc | 12:52 |
jrib | why do you want vmware server instead of vmware player | 12:52 |
jrib | or... is this server or player? | 12:53 |
traubisoda | i don't know the difference ^^ | 12:53 |
traubisoda | it's server | 12:53 |
jrib | uninstall it | 12:53 |
traubisoda | i've already tried it | 12:53 |
traubisoda | but it said that i have to reconfigure vmware | 12:54 |
jrib | pastebin the command you did and all of its output | 12:54 |
traubisoda | okay | 12:54 |
traubisoda | http://pastebin.com/m7a16fab2 | 12:56 |
traubisoda | and when i try to uninstall: http://pastebin.com/m39bc2318 | 12:56 |
jrib | the error says the problem is you are using gcc 4.2.3. How did you get that since it is not in the repos? | 12:59 |
traubisoda | good question :S i don't know | 12:59 |
traubisoda | i didn't installed in manualy | 13:00 |
jrib | what does 'apt-cache policy gcc' say? | 13:00 |
traubisoda | http://pastebin.com/m7be38cc7 | 13:01 |
jrib | what does 'lsb_release -c' return? | 13:01 |
traubisoda | codename : lenny | 13:02 |
jrib | are you using ubuntu? | 13:02 |
traubisoda | no | 13:02 |
jrib | traubisoda: ask in #debian | 13:02 |
traubisoda | okay | 13:03 |
traubisoda | thx for your time | 13:03 |
jrib | you need to sort out your gcc versions which is debian-specific because ubuntu does not have those versions. You probably just need to dowgrade or somehow install and specify the right version. Then it should work. | 13:04 |
jrib | or just leave | 13:04 |
jrib | ... | 13:04 |
Caleb_Estartes | Lame. ~.~ | 13:04 |
Caleb_Estartes | I've got to leave too, but I'll probably be back. I've only got one ethernet connection and have to switch between computers... ugh. | 13:05 |
Caleb_Estartes | Thanks for the help though. | 13:05 |
