  1. I got the almost the same error msg. 1. mandriva 2010, didnot install the virtualbox 3.0.8(together with the mdv dvd) 2. I download the virtualbox3.1.4 from the virtualbox official site,and tried to install it, it seems installed successfully with the shortcut in the system menu, and the virtualbox application could be run. 3.the popup msgboxs shows: 1)can not start a new task for the virtual machine myvirtual1,virtual machine "myvirtual1"has terminated unexpectedly during startup. the details: return code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) components: Machine interface: IMachine {99404f50-dd10-40d3-889b-dd2f79f1e95e} 2)-another msgbox showed kernel driver not installed(rc=-1908) the virtualbox linux kernel driver(vboxdrv)is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. please reinstall the kernel. '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' as root. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary. 4.run urpmi dkms,successfully finished. 5.run ./vboxdrv setup, it recompiled the vbox kernel module. it shows: [root@localhost init.d]# ./vboxdrv setup Stopping VirtualBox kernel module [OK] Recompiling VirtualBox kernel module [OK] Starting VirtualBox kernel module [OK] [root@localhost init.d]# then, vbox 3.1.4 runs normally.
  2. Happy new year to you! Thanks to reply. I still jammed here. 1) disk status I freed the space to root, now, the disk space status is : [root@localhost /]# df file system capacity used free used% mount point /dev/sdb1 29G 26G 1.7G 94% / /dev/sdb5 15G 12G 2.9G 81% /home /dev/sdb7 30G 28G 682M 98% /usr /dev/sdc1 1.9G 1.9G 59M 97% /media/GEIL That means I have enough space to hold the temp files while xwindow initiating and application running. 2) my other efforts I would like to choose fix the problem rather than reinstall the mdv2009. Because I want to make me understand the whole thing. So, I checked the /etc/xorg.conf: # File generated by XFdrake (rev 247269) # ********************************************************************** # Refer to the xorg.conf man page for details about the format of # this file. # ********************************************************************** Section "ServerFlags" #DontZap # disable <Ctrl><Alt><BS> (server abort) #DontZoom # disable <Ctrl><Alt><KP_+>/<KP_-> (resolution switching) AllowMouseOpenFail # allows the server to start up even if the mouse does not work EndSection Section "Module" Disable "dri" Load "dbe" # Double-Buffering Extension Load "v4l" # Video for Linux Load "extmod" Load "type1" Load "freetype" Load "glx" # 3D layer EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard1" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" Option "XkbOptions" "compose:rwin" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "monitor1" VendorName "AOC" ModelName "AOC SPECTRUM 7Vlr & 7VlrA & 7Vlr+ & 7VlrA+" HorizSync 30.0-70.0 VertRefresh 50.0-130.0 Option "PreferredMode" "1024x768" # TV fullscreen mode or DVD fullscreen output. # 768x576 @ 79 Hz, 50 kHz hsync ModeLine "768x576" 50.00 768 832 846 1000 576 590 595 630 # 768x576 @ 100 Hz, 61.6 kHz hsync ModeLine "768x576" 63.07 768 800 960 1024 576 578 590 616 EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "device1" VendorName "nVidia Corporation" BoardName "NVIDIA GeForce 3 to GeForce 4" Driver "nvidia" Option "DPMS" Option "DynamicTwinView" "false" Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" Option "IgnoreEDID" "1" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "screen1" Device "device1" Monitor "monitor1" DefaultColorDepth 24 Subsection "Display" Depth 8 Modes "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "640x480" "480x360" "320x240" EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 15 Modes "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "640x480" "480x360" "320x240" EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "640x480" "480x360" "320x240" EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "640x480" "480x360" "320x240" EndSubsection EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "layout1" InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse" "CorePointer" Screen "screen1" EndSection You see, I had removed the lines about Mouse2. And now the system will not report the error msg about Mouse2. But system runs still not normally. The normal start of system will lead me to terminal login, and I can login as root, common users, the runlevel is 3, when I logged in as frank, the common user, I can't startx successfully, the action of startx will lead me to a black screen with only an alive mouse cursor. I have to press ctrl + alt + backspc to return to the terminal, and login as root and run init 5 to start a graphic login interface, and choose frank to login, when I login as frank here, the xwindow will run normally. The gnome environment will start successfully. Since the graphic environment can be started up successfully, I think the xwindow core is not damaged, the reason for the problem may be the init scripts. But I don't know what are the relevant scripts. and what are the good content of the scripts. Another efforts is cleaning the tmp directories. I did the actions, but seems no effect. I will continue my exploring. Thanks for reply! Happy new year to you! Frank
  3. yes, i made the mistake, and got punished..... https://mandrivausers.org/index.php?showtopic=76794
  4. Hi, Happy new years to all! I ran into a problem, the detail is: 1) I did a wrong thing that I made a very simple partition scheme: in a 80G disk, I have 3 linux partitions, \, swap, usr; this is not the wrong thing, but I made additional things...Just like that I have a baby, the baby is not wrong, but that feeding him too much food is wrong. I copied a directory from other disk to root/home/miscs, and this directory is extremely bigger than the capacity size of root - I didnt check this carefully, meanwhile, I was urpmi task-lxde, and got an error : can't install that package. then I tried the installation again, it told me the package was installed already. Then I exit KDE and tried to go to lxde, the screen then got crashed: chaos colors and system stalled. I had to reset the system, then, I successfully logged in the terminal, but startx returned error msg: the meaning is 'tmp is full', then I entered the system in safe mode, and deleted the root/home/miscs, and restarted system. when I tried to enter the X, the screen stalled, only a mouse cursor which is alive in the black background. I pressed ctrl-alt-bckspc to get back to the terminal, I got the err messages in command line: (EE)unable to open evdev device "/dev/input/by_id/usb_event_mouse"; (EE)preinit returned NULL for "MOUSE2". 2) Then I did these: exit; login frank runlevel //runlevel reported 3 init 5 //it got to a graphic logon screen, I chose frank, and gnome, several times tried the logon in the same way, then I came back here. be curious? I am. 3) The question finally is : how to catch the mystic MOUSE2. Thank you for everything. Frank [moved from Software by spinynorman]

  6. Thank you! Cpu(s): 79.5%us, 14.6%sy, 0.0%ni, 0.0%id, 0.0%wa, 1.0%hi, 5.0%si, 0.0%st Mem: 514920k total, 501904k used, 13016k free, 9820k buffers Swap: 3068332k total, 331236k used, 2737096k free, 150364k cached looking at this above, I found the swap is used but less than the total. While the phisical mem is almost exhausted. The realistic thing is, this is my old computer baught in 2001, the ram is rambus type that means I can't buy that type mem in the market - no producer producing that. Since the CPU usage is 79.5%, and the CPU is a 1.4G P4 which is good enough to play the programs I opened, so I think the reason may be the GPU - the graphic card and the 3D effect drag down the system. I was just trying to mimic the working situation that many programs opened, so I open both opera and firefox. I like the 3D effect, so, I will try keep it and change the desktop to lxde. And try echo 20 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness Thank you again.

  8. Hi, Thanks to the experts here, I have almost tamed my mdv2009 by their help. Now, I have a question about the performance. My PC is an old one, int 1.4G P4, Rambus RAM 512M, display card is with NVidia gforece4 MMX440 driver - recorgnized in mdv is gforece 3 - 4 (3D enabled),80G IDE hard disk. In the mdv kde4 environment, I always keep about one firefox window(with 5 to 8 tabs open), one downloader(such as amule or so, with about 30K up speed and 10K down speed as usual),one file manager, and other 3 or 5 applications(normal). Almost all the times, the PC getting slower and slower after some hours. Checking the system monitor, CPU usage may reach 100% or at least 70%. Then, it is hard to navigate from window to window, it is hard to input words, the currsor seems like in a mouse runs in sticky muddy land. And the window on top may turns gray or darker and darker automatically. After seconds, the window will wake up. I want to know, how to optmise the system, and how to keep the optimization configuration. Keep words: High CPU usage rate, running windows get darker and darker automatically, optimization Frank
  9. Thank you! When I run into this crash event next time, I will try this, and report it here. Frank
  10. mdv2009,kde4,3d enabled the window decorator some times crashes, the windows loose their title bars, so i have no way to move the windows. I want to resume the decorator, without restart xwindow, how?
  11. thanks the usr dir is full, now all mutimedia work ok after there is free space . I still got no idea about why i can not play music and video before, I did nothing on configuration. Frank
  12. Amazing! It works! Thanks! The dependency problems rely on the packages sources?
  13. yes, i have. In the MCC software media manager, I found a item is contrib updates(official 2009.0-2)
  14. Thank you! Yes I find it in the MMC-Software manager, in contrib. I did add the official repos, by defalut. but I did not change the configuration of mirrors. I tried update the sources, but seems no effect. I will try again... Thank you again! Frank
