Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 can detect USB sound device

By ming.man.chan on February 5, 2008 10:12 AM

I have bought a China made USB sound device for my HP ML 115 server that cost me less than USD 15 because of this smart server does not have a common PCI slot. I have installed 3 operating systems in this server, Windows XP SP2, Windows 2003 SP2 and Oracle Enterprise Linux 4.

Guess what � I can hear the sound from the USB sound device when I run Windows XP and Windows 2003 but unfortunately not for Oracle Enterprise Linux 4.

Finally, Oracle released a new version of Enterprise Linux, version 5 in last quarter 2007. I have downloaded and installed it. Bet what � I can hear the sound from the USB sound device when I use Oracle Enterprise Linux 5. I can hear the sound from the cheap China made sound device lastly.

There are many videos in YouTube for users to learn about Oracle installation and Oracle VM installation.

When users finish watching the video and feel like downloading Oracle Database 10g or 11g to evaluate the product and have a feel, the users can proceed to the following link: http://www.oracle.com/technology/database/index.html

Oracle Database 11g with Windows 2008 Server

By ming.man.chan on February 24, 2008 8:08 AM

Windows 2008 Server has released RTM recently. Oracle fans will be
wondering can Oracle latest version of Database 11g run on Windows 2008 Server.

The answer
is YES, Oracle Database 11g can install in Windows 2008 Server (Standard
Edition) without any error. I have tried the following.

- Opened the Enterprise Manager using IE in Windows 2008 to
unlock the account, SCOTT

- Open the downloaded Visual Studio Solution
sample, DML Operations on DataSet Sample from
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/windows/odpnet/odpbasic.html. Migrated the project to Visual Studio 2008 and run it.

Happy
playing
