How do you reset virtual machine?

Firewall didnt make any difference.


--- Quote ---if it is a login problem (from win -> vwmware), then try to access the share via network neighbourhood; there you have to navigate until you find the computer "debian".
--- End quote ---
I assume you mean the Network Connections folder? (using XP) Have tried searching, doesnt find debian. There does seem to be these listed there tho:
VMware Virtual Ethernet Adapter for VMnet8
VMware Virtual Ethernet Adapter for VMnet1

This is a pain in the botty.  >:(

rookielot:
i have a bit of an issue... i cant run VMware player. not enough physical memory. what should i do?

scorche:
rookielot: Open your "Rockbox.vmx" file in a text editor.  Change memsize = "XXXX" to memsize = "256".

ipodfoo: If you don't know how to reset, then I bet that the problem is here. I read in the vmware forum that the samba driver sometimes fails to reconnect if the image wakes up from sleep. There was some complicated workaround explained there, but the easiest way is to reset the machine and wait for a minute to let it boot again.

If you are using vmware player:

Open the drop-down menu "player" at the top of the window
go to "troubleshoot" -> "reset"

And, no, I don't mean the network connections folder. I'm a german, so this is called "Netzwerkumgebung" for me, I think it's "network neighbourhood" in english. You should find it on your desktop. Win2k here, so it could be different.

In this menu you can change the memory allocation, too. I set mine to 96 MB and don't feel a difference, except that I have a tiny bit of memory left for windows :).

I hope this helps

iPodFoo:
Thanks rincewind. alls well again.

Jus one thing, the source downloaded using:


--- Quote ---cvs -z3 -d:pserver:username@www.rockbox.org:/cvsroot/rockbox co rockbox-devel
--- End quote ---

seems to be missing folders. Theres no app/bitmaps folder for example. Is it for a certain target? Im looking to work on ipod nano. Does the above line need to be altered?

Also, is it possible to copy an paste text to and from the xp desktop and debian? Ive tried ctrl+c and selecting my mouse, just cant seem to copy.

Cheers.
