Installing Oracle 11gR1 on a Fedora Core 10 64 bit VM

Jun 2, 2009 , , , , by Jeff

Just a note, to myself more than anything, about what extra packages are required by a 64 bit installation of Fedora Core 10, when trying to install Oracle 11gR1.

The installation I undertook was on a FC10 64 bit VM running under VMWare Server 2.0 running on top of FC10 64 bit OS.

Tim, as usual, has a lovely guide which told me almost everything I needed to know, however the guide says “If you are performing the 64-bit installation, make sure both the 32-bit and 64-bit libraries are installed.” rather than explicitly stating the packages for a 64 bit install. Until I tried to install Oracle 11gR1, I didn’t know what these were. The Oracle installer for 11g soon told me in the pre install checks it does, so I went about installing the following packages, in order:

glibc-2.9-3.i686.rpm
libaio-0.3.107-4.fc10.i386.rpm
libgcc-4.3.2-7.i386.rpm
We usually do not trust pills so easily buy the pill without worrying about losing davidfraymusic.com generic sildenafil uk your self-respect. It is made with only natural ingredients, there are no known side effects canada cialis 100mg upon taking the drug. L-arginine is viagra purchase online an amino acid which is used by the immune system as well as for avoiding hypoxia and modulates hair growth. However, do not forget to verify the information given on the page through thorough research and reviews. sildenafil mastercard glibc-devel-2.9-3.i386.rpm
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-64.x86_64.rpm
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-64.i386.rpm
libstdc++-4.3.2-7.i386.rpm

That got me past the pre install checks of the Oracle installer and on to a successful install.

I’ve added the list to the comments on the guide Tim produced as well.

Cursor keys not working in Virtual Server 2 VM

May 22, 2009 , , , by Jeff

Posted as a reminder to myself about how to fix this issue…

I couldn’t get some of the cursor keys to work properly on my virtual machines running under VMWare Virtual Server 2 on Fedora 10 x86_64. Kept giving funny behaviour like bringing up the screen capture applet!

A bit of searching the net came up with this one, which although not referring to Virtual Server 2 specifically, seems to work all the same…

Essentially, adding the line below to the following file fixes the problem
These could include miscarriages as well as clinical studies regarding cialis from canada the condition. The cheap solution for the review viagra on line disease is not partial. We want to cialis price be detoxified when we go out the clinic or from your therapist’s table. Besides, he should not have taken cialis 40mg it once he saw it was shipped from China.
File (create it, if not already present):

Line:

xkeymap.nokeycodeMap = true

My thanks to “The Monkey Jungle”!
