    Ubuntu in VirtualPC2007

    Reset Audio
    sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset


    Audio Driver for Linux
    http://manuals.opensound.com/devlists/Linux.html


    List Hardware
    sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset



    Once you start Ubuntu you will see garbage on the screen
     
    Hit Ctrl-F1
     
    sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup

    this line just to backup the config file incase of any problem, that kind of things can happen. Then I used actual command for modifying the file
    sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

    then by removing the line default '24' and change it to '16' hurrah here it comes Ubuntu on Virtual PC 2007.
     
     
     
  • Log in (remember the mouse isn't working yet), so press CTRL-ALT-F1 to drop into a console.
  • Let's now get the mouse working again. 
    • sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
  •  Page down to the bottom of the file and find the first kernel line after the phrase " ## ## End Default Options ##".
  • Add i8042.noloop clock=pit to the kernel parameters. 
    • the clock=pit is a fix for the time drift issues (KB918461)
  • Now we want to ensure the modules are loaded for the Virtual PC soundcard and Network card. 
    • sudo nano /etc/modules
    • At the end of the file add the lines
      tulip
      snd-sb16
       
  • Then we want to remove the fancy Ubuntu splash screen that has some issues under Virtual PC. 

    sudo apt-get remove usplash -y

     

  • Restart by typing

    sudo reboot
