VMware Player share folder under guest OS Ubuntu

September 9th, 2011 admin 2 comments

If you can’t find share folder under guest OS Ubuntu, maybe other linux, Just do it according the following sequence,

1. make sure your Virtual machine is powered off.

2. edit your virtual machine’s configuration to make a share folder, and enable it, for example, my host is Windows 7 Bit64, my share floder is C:\Test

3. power the Guest OS, for example, my Guest OS is Ubuntu 11.04, VMplayer is V3.14

4. IMPORTANT,  open a terminal, run “sudo vmware-config-tools.pl” , please don’t input ”

5. open places-Computer-Filesystem, under /mnt/hgfs, you will find the share folder. Congratulation!

 

It’s simple, isn’t it? Just re-config vmware-tools, heheeee

 

If it works, please give me a reply. Thanks.

GFI Backup 2009 Home Edition

March 7th, 2011 admin No comments

Tested several backup software for my laptop.

1. FBackup 4.2 — not support incremental backup

2. Backup4all.Professional.4.2 — during my test, there is a strange error in inc backup.

3. Cobian Backup V10.0 — GUI isn’t friendly

4. GFI Backup 2009 Home Edition — almost perfect, except log which is too professional.

 

Final, decided to use “GFI Backup 2009 Home Edition”, it’s free for personal user.

lost sound of headphone, Ubuntu 10.10

February 14th, 2011 admin No comments
The following description is the same situation as me.
Thanks, mrbean_pfiev.
Although I have registered in Ubuntu’s bbs, I can’t login for the reason I don’t know.
Re: Microphone does not work on 10.04 on Dell e6410
Hi,
After several times restart, turn off, turn on the computer, I have found that when I restart from Win 7 to Ubuntu (that means I boot on Win 7, after that I restart to boot to Ubuntu), there is no sound in my headphone (the headphone works for win 7, of course). But when I boot direct to Ubuntu (that means the computer is turned off before), my headphone works. That is my problem.
I had tried with your command, but it said that there is no such file or directory. Thanks very much

RMVB without sound in KMPlayer, DLL files to be copied

February 12th, 2011 admin No comments

The standard KMplayer does NOT support RMVB, maybe for copyright.

To solve the problem, there are three ways.

1. download a version from KMplayer’s website complied by someone, it isn’t official version.

For example, the official version is 3.0.17, the rmvb version is 3.0.18, you can find it.

2. download rmvb dll files, and copy the to KMplayer’s directory. You can google it, then download it.

or Download it from here, KMplayer_rmvb_dll.zip

It works in my Windows 7.

3. Install a Real Player, and copy the dll files related to KMplayer’s directory, the filenames are,

sipr.dll, pncrt.dll, drvc.dll, cook.dll

Good luck.

Zotero sync function

February 12th, 2011 admin No comments

I opened sync function of Zotero several days ago, because I use Zotero in Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows 7.

It works.

URL can be saved by Xmark, and web page can be saved by Zotero.

This is why I like Firefox.

WMware 7.1.3 and iTunes 10.0.1.22

February 12th, 2011 admin No comments

First, I have changed my laptop.

Second, my iPad has been jailbreaked which version is IOS3.2.2, and I installed applications with iTunes 10.0.1.22.

So, the problem is coming.

When I connected iPad with my new computer, iTunes wanted to wipe all applications in my iPad, because it found the iPad has been synchronized with another computer.

It’s a trouble, if I change my computer in future, iTunes will do the same thing again.

It’s a GREAT invention by Apple, enough to disgust me.

It’s also a GREAT reason to JB it. In fact, the next work proved JB is the right thing I haved done again.

As WMware supports USB device now, why not use it for iPad?

I tested iPad/iTunes in VMware 7.1.3, it works.

So, I created a Virtual Machine for Apple only which purpose is to finish sync with iTunes.

In the VM, connected with iPad, confirmed to wipe all applications in iTunes.

iTunes began a very long time sync, enough to watch a movie.

When it finished, my books in iBooks were lost, except ones bought in iTunes.

But, all applications are still there!

why?

I don’t understand, the reason may be the JB.

I haven’t tested VM for Apple in another computer, in theory, it should work.

Jailbreak is a kind of happiness, my words.

I will not upgrade IOS3.2.2 and iTunes 10.0.1.22 as Apple suggested. They are suitable with me.

Don’t think iPad is a computer, it’s just a toy which can do some compute.
