This is what I did on the V-Day

Ah! You thought I'd write about gifts etc!! Sucker!

1) Download just a few files from the big torrent.

Was extracting Scrubs episodes (downloaded earlier by a friend of mine thru torrents)... multi-volume RARs. But one volume was damaged... No Clue how! So, I used Transmission-BitTorrent Client for a change (generally I use Vuze); Had it eat the torrent (the only torrent I could find... was the complete Season4... and I couldn't find the Scrubs-S04E04.part01.rar ... so I started downloading the full episode). It showed me all the Directory structure and finally I could uncheck all the boxes... and then just download the missing Scrubs s04e04. :P Cool Right?


2) see the blog below..!! I used VirtualBox!! Minor change in the Network interface emulation (Make it Bridged. If its NAT already) when you use the Chromium OS.
;) It should work fine. Also the build you have access to...
[if you've not compiled it yourself from the 'git' builds] may have been hacked etc.. so you are advised not to use your Personal Gmail account for access. Create one now... and use.
:P Identity theft... buddy. Prevention is always better...! ;) You'd never want to install and use it as the only OS on your computer. TRUST ME!


3) Trying to figure out how to get OALD7 installed in my Ubuntu amd64. It has some 32 bit binaries GTK issues.
// issue definition begins:
On: $ sudo ./installation.sh

Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing ..........................
This installation doesn't support glibc-2.1 on Linux / x86_64

// So i searched etc and finally... issue2
On: $ linux32 ./installation.sh

Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing ..........................
/home/nikunj/.setup8014: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Couldn't load 'atal'
The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1

Both of the times it cried about some support etc:
Please contact Loki Technical Support at support@lokigames.com.

// Issues end here. I hope I'll resolve them one day.

& hey of course I blog-D today! CAN we count that as 4?

PS: The posts are incomplete and gibberish on will. Thanks for reading. but y would you put yourself thru this pain! ??? M blabbering JLT. Ciao
