JAJAJAJ! Q demás :P Bueno gente. Resulta que ayer di de baja mi contrato en movistar. Todo bien hasta ahí, cuando consulto mi saldo una hora después resulta que el saldo de favoritos aún está. Genial digo, como pague todo el mes, todavía lo puedo usar hoy y listo, llamo a mi novia (favorito) y ta. Después de repente me doy cuenta q me gastó todo el saldo. UNA CALENTURA!!! Argh! En fin, luego miro el saldo, y claro, los favoritos intactos. Llamo a servicio al cliente y me dicen q el sistema por defecto no se que, y le digo, pero escuchame, no me molesta que me lo quiten, pero por que carajo (no dije esta palabra) aparece en el saldo si no lo puedo usar???

An interesting episode explaining the evolution formula.

If you want Ubuntu to mount your windows partition at startup, or any other I think. 1.- Open System->Preferences->Startup Applications 2.- Click Add button. 3.- Name and comment what you want, the important part is Command 4.- type gnome-mount -d 5.- Press ok, and its done. Everytime you start Ubuntu it will mount your partition automatically. should be something like this: /dev/sda# or /dev/hda# where # is a number, usually between 0..6 If you don't know which is the partition name, install gparted: sudo apt-get install gparted Then type sudo gparted in the terminal and you will see the information of all the hard disks on your computer. Also the /dev/... information you need. Note: The download is less than 1MB. Hope it helps!

Playing around, I came across the properties of my ntfs partition (right click on it in Places->Computer). There I saw the mounting options. I supposed that maybe Ubuntu would mount the partition automatically if I indicated the right options there. Wrong idea. No only did it not mount it at startup, but I also messed up the options so that it wouldn't mount anymore. Not even the old way (Places->"WindowsPartition"). I looked into /etc/fstab but there was no information about ntfs file system's. Strange, I thought that in that file was everything related to mounting partitions. So I started googling. Didn't find anything at start. Searching around a while I came across some good guide. But since I like to experience I just read the part that informed the problem and then wen...
