Top 5 features for Me :
1. Simplified Interface
2. Add On Disabler
3. Download Manager (Finally)
4. Standards Support (CSS3 and HTML5)
5. GPU Rendering

but wait there is a fix and its simple

1. Share your printer
2. Note down the share name in format of \\Computer-Name\Printer-Name
3. Go to command prompt and type in
   net use lpt1: \\Computer-Name\Printer-Name /persistent:yes

Here lpt1: can also be lpt2: if you use a serial port printer in lpt1 and persistent:yes makes this available even after reboot.

This really helped me out, If you are facing problems check this out, its simple enough

1. Open Regedit
2. Navigate to HKCU\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\
3. Delete the Bags & BagMRU keys

If this does not help end the explorer.exe process and restart

check the current java(c) version:

$ java -version

[probably the GNU one]

$ javac -version

[probably the Eclipse Java Compiler]

Install the Sun JDK

1. get the latest Sun JDK RPM:
   Go to the directory where you want to download, extract and install (eg: cd /tmp, cd /root).

   $ links http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

   Choose the link to the latest JDK.
   On the download page: accept the agreement in links and download the JDK RPM-in-bin for linux.

2. Make the downloaded binary executable and run it:

   $ chmod u+x jdk-<version>-linux-i586-rpm.bin
   $ ./jdk-<version>-linux-i586-rpm.bin

   The rpm is extracted from the bin and installed (accept the license).
   The java version is now installed in /usr/java/. This dir contains all individual versions and two symlinks: “latest” and “default”. You should never reference to any of these locations (see 4).

3. Get the matching JPackage compatibility package for this Sun JDK:

   $ links ftp://jpackage.hmdc.harvard.edu/JPackage/1.7/generic/RPMS.non-free/
   $ rpm -ivh java-x.x.x-sun-compat-x.x.x.xx-1jpp.i586.rpm

4. To make the Sun JDK the default for the entire system, use the ‘alternatives’ method. This will create symlinks in /etc/alternatives/ that are used throughout the entire system (eg see “$ ll /usr/bin/java”).
   [select the Sun version instead of the GNU version for each of these commands]

   $ /usr/sbin/alternatives --config java
   $ /usr/sbin/alternatives --config javac

check the new installation

$ java -version

[should be the new Sun version]

$ javac -version

[should be the new Sun version]

The following procedure is a step-by-step guide (Cookbook) with tips and information for installing Oracle Database 10g on Red Hat Linux.
This guide shows how I installed 10g Database on the Red Hat system:

Downloading Oracle10g Software and Burning Oracle10g CDs

Download Oracle 10g (32-bit and 64-bit) for Linux from OTN to install linux 10g oracle:
http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/database/oracle10g/index.html
NOTE: To install a Oracle Database 10g (without RAC) you only need to download the database file ship.db.lnx32.cpio.gz, or 10201_database_linux_x86_64.cpio etc.
Compute a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) checksum for the downloaded files and compare the checksum numbers against the numbers posted on OTN’s website. For example:

cksum ship.db.lnx32.cpio.gz

Uncompress the downloaded file(s):

gunzip ship.db.lnx32.cpio.gz

Unpack ship.db.lnx32.cpio:

$ cpio -idmv < ship.db.lnx32.cpio
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.server/10.1.0.3.0/1
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.server/10.1.0.3.0
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.server
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.tg/10.1.0.3.0/1/DataFiles
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.tg/10.1.0.3.0/1
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.tg/10.1.0.3.0
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.tg
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.assistants.dbca/10.1.0.3.0/1/DataFiles/doc.3.1.jar
Disk1/stage/Components/oracle.assistants.dbca/10.1.0.3.0/1/DataFiles/class.jar
...

I executed the following command to burn the Disk1 directory on a CD:

# mkisofs -r Disk1 | cdrecord -v dev=0,0,0 speed=20 -

(Drives’ speed varies; you can get the dev numbers when you execute cdrecord -scanbus).
Note that 10g R2 won’t fit on a single CD since it has over 780MB.

Checking Memory and Swap Space

Oracle says that the system must have at least 512MB of RAM and 1GB of swap space or twice the size of RAM. And for systems with more than 2 GB of RAM, the swap space can be between one and two times the size of RAM. You might also want to check out Sizing Swap Space.
For test sake I tried to install an Oracle Database 10g (Type: General Purpose Database) on a little PC with 256MB of RAM and 1 GB of swap space. I was able to get a 10g database up and running on this little PC without a problem.
To check the size of physical memory, execute:

grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo

To check the size of swap space, execute:

grep SwapTotal /proc/meminfo

You also can add temporary swap space to your system by creating a temporary swap file instead of using a raw device. Here is the procedure:

su - root
dd if=/dev/zero of=tmpswap bs=1k count=900000
chmod 600 tmpswap
mkswap tmpswap
swapon tmpswap

To disable the temporary swap space execute the following commands:

su - root
swapoff tmpswap
rm tmpswap

Checking /tmp Space

According to Oracle’s documentation, the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) requires up to 400 MB of free space in the /tmp directory. But OUI checks if /tmp is only greater than 80 MB.
To check the space in /tmp, run:

$ df /tmp

If you do not have enough space in the /tmp filesystem, you can temporarily create a tmp directory in another filesystem. Here is how you can do this:

su - root
mkdir /<AnotherFilesystem>/tmp
chown root.root /<AnotherFilesystem>/tmp
chmod 1777 /<AnotherFilesystem>/tmp
export TEMP=/<AnotherFilesystem>           # used by Oracle
export TMPDIR=/<AnotherFilesystem>         # used by Linux programs like the linker "ld"

When you are done with the Oracle installation, shutdown Oracle and remove the temporary /tmp directory:

su - root
rmdir /<AnotherFilesystem>/tmp
unset TEMP
unset TMPDIR

Checking Software Packages (RPMs)

General
Before you install an Oracle Database 10g you need to check the system for required RPMs. On my systems I usually install a minimum list of RPMs which usually requires the installation of additional packages for Oracle databases. Always ensure to use the latest RPMs and kernels!

For 10g R2 (32-bit) on RHEL 4 x86, the document Oracle Database Release Notes 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Linux x86 lists the following required package versions or higher:

  binutils-2.15.92.0.2-10.EL4
  compat-db-4.1.25-9
  control-center-2.8.0-12
  gcc-3.4.3-9.EL4
  gcc-c++-3.4.3-9.EL4
  glibc-2.3.4-2
  glibc-common-2.3.4-2
  gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-44.1
  libstdc++-3.4.3-9.EL4
  libstdc++-devel-3.4.3-9.EL4
  make-3.80-5
  pdksh-5.2.14-30
  sysstat-5.0.5-1
  xscreensaver-4.18-5.rhel4.2

Also ensure to install the libaio-0.3.96 RPM or a newer version! Otherwise the OUI prerequisite check will fail.
To check the RPMs, run:

  rpm -q binutils compat-db control-center gcc gcc-c++ glibc glibc-common gnome-libs \
         libstdc++ libstdc++-devel make pdksh sysstat xscreensaver libaio

10g R2 on RHEL AS 4 (x86)
On my RHEL AS 4 x86 system I had to install the following RPMs and dependencies to meet the software requirements:

   rpm -Uvh gcc-3.4.4-2.i386.rpm \
            gcc-c++-3.4.4-2.i386.rpm \
            libstdc++-devel-3.4.4-2.i386.rpm \
            glibc-devel-2.3.4-2.13.i386.rpm \
            glibc-headers-2.3.4-2.13.i386.rpm \
            glibc-kernheaders-2.4-9.1.98.EL.i386.rpm
 
   rpm -Uvh gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-44.1.i386.rpm \
            compat-db-4.1.25-9.i386.rpm \
            ORBit-0.5.17-14.i386.rpm \
            gtk+-1.2.10-33.i386.rpm \
            imlib-1.9.13-23.i386.rpm \
            libpng10-1.0.16-1.i386.rpm \
            gdk-pixbuf-0.22.0-16.el4.i386.rpm \
            libungif-4.1.3-1.i386.rpm \
            alsa-lib-1.0.6-5.RHEL4.i386.rpm \
            audiofile-0.2.6-1.i386.rpm \
            esound-0.2.35-2.i386.rpm
 
   rpm -Uvh sysstat-5.0.5-1.i386.rpm
 
   rpm -Uvh libaio-0.3.103-3.i386.rpm
 
   rpm -Uvh xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.20.i386.rpm
 
   rpm -Uvh compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm

I don’t know why the control-center RPM and the xscreensaver RPM are listed as requirements. On my system I did not install these RPMs since I’m against installing desktop stuff on servers. When I installed 10g R2 I did not experience any problems when these RPMs were missing. When you want to install control-center RPM and the xscreensaver, then have fun. The list can be very long with all the dependencies like gnome-desktop, cdrecord etc..

Checking Kernel Parameters

To see all kernel parameters, execute:

su - root
sysctl -a

For Oracle10g, the following kernel parameters have to be set to values greater than or equal to the recommended values which can be changed in the proc filesystem:

shmmax  = 2147483648     (To verify, execute: cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax)
shmmni  = 4096           (To verify, execute: cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmni)
shmall  = 2097152        (To verify, execute: cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmall)   (for 10g R1)
shmmin  = 1              (To verify, execute: ipcs -lm |grep "min seg size")
shmseg  = 10             (It's hardcoded in the kernel - the default is much higher)
 
semmsl  = 250            (To verify, execute: cat /proc/sys/kernel/sem | awk '{print $1}')
semmns  = 32000          (To verify, execute: cat /proc/sys/kernel/sem | awk '{print $2}')
semopm  = 100            (To verify, execute: cat /proc/sys/kernel/sem | awk '{print $3}')
semmni  = 128            (To verify, execute: cat /proc/sys/kernel/sem | awk '{print $4}')
 
file-max = 65536         (To verify, execute: cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max)
 
ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000
                         (To verify, execute: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range)

NOTE: Do not change the value of any kernel parameter on a system where it is already higher than listed as minimum requirement.

Oracle also recommends to set the local port range ip_local_port_range for outgoing messages to “1024 65000″ which is needed for high-usage systems. This kernel parameter defines the local port range for TCP and UDP traffic to choose from.
I added the following lines to the /etc/sysctl.conf file which is used during the boot process:

kernel.shmmax=2147483648
kernel.sem=250 32000 100 128
fs.file-max=65536
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range=1024 65000

Adding these lines to the /etc/sysctl.conf file will cause the system to change these kernel parameters after each boot using the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit script which is invoked by /etc/inittab. But in order that these new added lines or settings in /etc/sysctl.conf become effective immediately, execute the following command:

su - root
sysctl -p

Sizing Disk Space for Oracle10g

Oracle says that about 2.5 GB of disk space should be reserved for the Oracle software on Linux.
When I did an Oracle 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.3.0) “General Purpose Database” installation (not including any software from the Oracle Database 10g Companion CD), the Oracle software used about 1.3 GB of disk space, and the preconfigured “General Purpose Database” (datafiles, etc.) used about 710 MB of disk space.

$ du -m -s /u01
1963    /u01
$ du -m -s /u01/app/oracle/oradata
720     /u01/app/oracle/oradata

If you also install additional software from the Oracle Database 10g Companion CD, then add at least 1 GB of free disk space.
So if you install Oracle10g Enterprise Edition and additional software from the Oracle Database 10g Companion CD, then you need about 2.5 GB of disk for the Oracle software. And if you also want to add a preconfigured database on the same filesystem, make sure to add another 1 GB of disk space.
NOTE: If you don’t put Oracle10g on a separate filesystems, then make sure the root filesystem “/” has enough disk space. You can check the free space of the root filesystem with the following command:

df -h /

Using Automatic Storage Management (ASM)

For more information on installing and configuring ASM, see Installing and Configuring Automatic Storage Management (ASM) and Disks. And for information on how to make use of ASM disk groups when running OUI, see Installing Oracle Database 10g with Real Application Cluster (RAC).

Creating Oracle User Accounts

To create the oracle account and groups, execute the following commands:

su - root
groupadd dba          # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
groupadd oinstall     # group owner of Oracle files
useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
passwd oracle

For more information on the "oinstall" group account, see When to use “OINSTALL” group during install of oracle.

Setting Shell Limits for the Oracle User

Most shells like Bash provide control over various resources like the maximum allowable number of open file descriptors or the maximum number of processes available to a user. For more information on ulimit for the Bash shell, see man bash and search for ulimit.
If you just install a small test database, then you might be ok with the current settings (note that the limits very often vary). But for (larger) production databases, you should increase the following shell limits to the following values recommended by Oracle:

nofile = 65536     (To verify, execute: ulimit -n)
nproc  = 16384     (To verify, execute: ulimit -u)

The nofile option denotes the maximum number of open file descriptors, and nproc denotes the maximum number of processes available to a single user.
To see all shell limits, execute:

ulimit -a

The following procedures/links show how to increase these parameters for the oracle user account:
For more information on nofile and how to increase the limit, see Setting Limits for the Maximum Number of Open File Descriptors for the Oracle User. Even though this procedure was written for Oracle9i on RHAS 2.1, it also applies to Oracle10g on RHEL AS 2.1, RHEL AS 3, and other versions.
For more information on nproc and how to increase the limit, see Setting Limits for the Maximum Number of Processes for the Oracle User. Even though this procedure was written for Oracle9i on RHAS 2.1, it also applies to Oracle10g on RHEL AS 2.1, RHEL AS 3, and other versions.

Creating Oracle Directories

For Oracle10g you only need to create the directory for $ORACLE_BASE:

su - root
mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
chown oracle.oinstall /u01/app/oracle

But if you want to comply with Oracle’s Optimal Flexible Architecture (OFA), then you don’t want to place the database files in the /u01 directory but in another directory/filesystem/disk like /u02. This is not a requirement but if you want to comply with OFA, then you might want to create the following directories as well:

su - root
mkdir -p /u02/oradata/<em>orcl</em>
chown oracle.oinstall /u02/oradata/orcl

In this example, “orcl” stands for the name of the database which will also be the name of the instance. This is typically the case for single instance databases.
Optimal Flexible Architecture (OFA) for 10g R1 (10.1.0.2)
The OFA standard is a guideline created by Oracle to ensure reliable Oracle installations. For Oracle 10g Database, the OFA recommended Oracle home path has changed.
The home path for the first 10g (10.1.0) database installation on a system would be:

  /u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/<strong>db_1</strong>

If you would install a second Oracle 10g Database 10g (10.1.0) on the same system, the Oracle home directory would be as follows:

  /u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_<strong>2</strong>

If the Oracle10g software is not owned by the user oracle but by the user “oraowner”, then the path of the Oracle home directory would be:

  /u01/app/<strong>oraowner</strong>/product/10.1.0/db_1
  /u01/app/<strong>oraowner</strong>/product/10.1.0/db_2

The standard directory name for Oracle10g is “app”:

  /u01/<strong>app</strong>/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1

Oracle recommends to use mount points such as /u01, /u02, etc. which complies with the OFA guidelines. But others can be used, for example:

  /<strong>disk_1</strong>/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1

The subtree for database files not stored in ASM disk groups should be named as follows:

  <strong>/u02</strong>/oradata/&lt;<em>db_name_1</em>&gt;
  <strong>/u02</strong>/oradata/&lt;<em>db_name_2</em>&gt;
  <strong>/u03</strong>/oradata/&lt;<em>db_name_1</em>&gt;
  <strong>/u03</strong>/oradata/&lt;<em>db_name_2</em>&gt;

The mount point /u01 should be used for the Oracle software only. /u02, /u03, /u04 etc. should be used for the database files. The db_name stands for the DB_NAME initialization parameter which is typically the same as the SID name for single instance databases.

Setting Oracle Environments

Since the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) “runInstaller” is run from the oracle account, some environment variables must be configured for this account before OUI is started.
Execute the following commands for the Bash shell which is the default shell on Red Hat Linux (to verify your shell run: echo $SHELL):

su - oracle
export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
export ORACLE_SID=orcl

NOTE: If ORACLE_BASE is used, then Oracle recommends that you don’t set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable but that you choose the default path suggested by the OUI. You can set and use ORACLE_HOME after you finished running OUI.
Also, the environment variables ORACLE_HOME and TNS_ADMIN should not be set. If you’ve already set these environment variables, you can unset them by running the following commands:

unset ORACLE_HOME
unset TNS_ADMIN

To have these environment variables set automatically each time you login as oracle, you can add these environment variables to the ~oracle/.bash_profile file which is the user startup file for the Bash shell on Red Hat Linux. To do this you could simply copy/paste the following commands to make these settings permanent for your oracle‘s Bash shell:

su - oracle
cat >> ~oracle/.bash_profile << EOF
export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
export ORACLE_SID=orcl
EOF

Installing Oracle10g

Installing Oracle10g on a Remote Linux Server
If you don’t install Oracle on your local system but on a remote server, then you need to relink X to your local desktop. The easiest way to do this is to use the “X11 forwarding” feature of ssh. This means that you don’t have to run xhost and set the DISPLAY environment variable.
Here is an example how to make use of the “X11 forward” feature of ssh. Simply run the following command from your local desktop:

$ ssh -X oracle@oracle_remote_server_name

Now when you try to run any GUI tool on the remote server, it will automatically be relinked to your local desktop. If this is not working, verify that the ForwardX11 setting is not set to “no” in /etc/ssh/ssh_config on the remote server:

su - root
# grep ForwardX11 /etc/ssh/ssh_config | grep -v "^#"
        ForwardX11 yes
#

If you are using telnet, however, you will have to set DISPLAY manually, see article Starting runInstaller for more information.

Starting Oracle Universal Installer
Insert the Oracle CD that contains the image of the downloaded file ship.db.lnx32.cpio, or change to the directory that contains the image directory Disk1.
If you install Oracle10g from a CD, mount the CD by running the following commands in another terminal:

su - root
mount /media/cdrom

Before you execute runInstaller, make sure the Oracle environment variables are set, see Setting Oracle Environments. You can verify the settings by running the set command:

su - oracle
oracle$ set

To execute runInstaller from the mounted CD, run the following command as the oracle user:

oracle$ /media/cdrom/runInstaller

Updates after Running Oracle Universal Installer
After Oracle10g has been installed, make sure that ORACLE_HOME, PATH, and LD_LIBRARY_PATH are set for the oracle account.
Note that the path for ORACLE_HOME might be different on your system!
Also note that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is needed for some Oracle binaries such as sysresv!

For 10g R2 (10.2.0.1.0) I added the following lines to the ~oracle/.bash_profile file:

        export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
        export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
        export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib

After that run the following command to set all environment variables in ~oracle/.bash_profile:

        $ . ~oracle/.bash_profile

This commmand will add the environment variables to the ~oracle/.profile and source in the file for the current shell by executing “. ~oracle/.bash_profile“.

Oracle Post-installation Tasks

Startup and Shutdown of the Oracle10g Database
To startup the database:

oracle$ sqlplus /nolog
SQL> connect / as sysdba
SQL> startup

To shutdown the database:

oracle$ sqlplus /nolog
SQL> connect / as sysdba
SQL> shutdown

The slash connects you to the schema owned by SYS. In the above example you will be connected to the schema owned by SYS with the privilege SYSDBA. SYSDBA gives you the following privileges:
- sysoper privileges WITH ADMIN OPTION
- create database
- recover database until
Shutdown of other Oracle 10g Background Processes
If you installed a preconfigured database using OUI, then several Oracle background processes are now running on your server. Execute the following command to see the background processes:

ps -ef

To shutdown the Oracle background processes after an Oracle Database 10g installation, you can execute the following commands:
