QNX Momentics IDE 4.6 not working in Cent OS 5.5

QNX Momentics is not officially supported not even on Cent OS 5.4 much less Cent OS 5.5. Although Cent OS 5.4 should be compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 Desktop.

Also, QNX Momentics 4.6 is working happily in Cent OS 5.4, but users always like to use the latest and the greatest version.

Anyway, running QNX Momentics in Cent OS 5.5 shows the following screen:
This issue was traced back to be caused by interface change in XULRunner which comes with Firefox browser. See this link and this link for discussion about this issue.

But this is not without hope of using the IDE in Cent OS 5.5.
echo "org.eclipse.ui/showIntro=false" > /tmp/noWelcomeScreen.ini cd /opt/qnx641/host/linux/x86/usr/bin qde -pluginCustomization /tmp/noWelcomeScreen.ini

Enjoy!

Installing MonoDevelop in OpenSUSE 12.2 from its repository was very easy.

Error! Could not locate dkms.conf file install VirtualBox 4.1.8 on Ubuntu 11.10

Tried to update my Ubuntu host today and it did pickup that new version of VirtualBox is available (4.1.8). All other packages installed properly except that VirtualBox installation was complaining about missing dkms.conf file, see error message below. $: sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup * Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ] * Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules Error! Could not locate dkms.conf file. File: does not exist. [ OK ] * Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMS [ OK ] * Starting VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ] Though it looks like installation was fine but I am concerned about its effects to VirtualBox functionality. To fix this, do: $: cd /var/lib/dkms/vboxhost $: sudo rm -r 4.1.4 $: sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup Of course you have to re
