Elecciones municipales: un bochorno. 70% de los montevideanos no voto alcaldes. Recupero algo de fe en la gente

I have created disk images for forensic purposes (artifact analysis and such). The questions is: given a "dd" image created from the whole, raw device, how do I mount individual partitions?

Let's say that the device I want to analyze resides in /dev/sdc, and that I have some large storage mounted under /mnt/largedisk and that I have cread the forensic image using the following command:

Since like Windows 7 was released and I first started using it, I had problems accessing *some* (yeah, that's the weird part, *some*) Windows 2003 file and printer shares. Man, it was driving me crazy.

The problem has to do with NTLMv2 and friends. Now, for the solution, do read on http://www.tannerwilliamson.com/2009/09/windows-7-seven-network-file-sharing-fix-samba-smb/

I´m a frequent user of ReminderFox, a FF/TH extension that, among other things, allows attaching reminders to specific email messages.

Here you can find ReminderFox 1.9.7 modified to install in Lanikai beta1/beta2. The modification was done and tested on a Mac running Snow Leopard, but I guess it should work on other platforms as well.

I user both the Spanish dictionary and the "Dictionary Switcher" extension for Thunderbird. Lately, I have started using Thunderbird 3.1 beta 1 (codename "Lanikai") and these extensions do not work.

I modified the RDF files for both extensions in order to get them installed on Lanikai. I´m attaching the modified XPI files here. Both of them appear to work fine on 3.1b1.

My laptop's x64 Win Vista Driver Store got corrupted yesterday, after a CHKDSK was performed on the C: drive. How did I realize this? Because I tried to install a printer and got bizarre errors and an empty driver list (where Windows will usually list tons of drivers)

I followed the steps mentioned in this post, and the basically worked, now I can see the full list of printer drivers. In short, the steps are:

I use "Unison" regularly as a folder synchronization tool. As much as I have searched, I have yet to find something that comes even close to it as a sync tool. However, Unison has its dark side as well. Unison, defying all reason, is not backward compatible with itself, and worse, has no fallback mechanisms built-in.

Yesterday I was in need of detecting when a web site or page is accessed via either IPv6 or IPv4. I wrote two rather simplistic PHP functions that so far seem to be up to the job. They just look for an ocurrence of the symbol ":" in the "REMOTE_ADDR" server variable. Here they are:

If you are like me, chances are that you could not resist the urge to download and install Microsoft's public beta of the upcoming Windows 7 release.

So, I did install it at the expense of having my Fedora 10 GRUB overwritten by Windows 7's installer. Although W7 works fine now, I lost the ability to boot into FC10.

I booted the laptop using my FC 10 LiveCD and tried to do the mount root / chroot / grub-install routine that is described everywhere in the Internet, but I found that the chrooted system has no devices under /dev and this makes grub-install fail.
