[SGVLUG] NTFS drive

[Manuel Fernandes]

I found out the cause. I should've been mounting hdb1 instead of hda2.
It was fdisk that provided me some of that information (below). I came
across this through a friend: Captive approach to accessing NTFS
http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/
I'm brave but not that brave to try it without a backup ;)

My next big challenge is to get this ALSA driver working. I got it
installed and it says its working but it ain't.

Thanks for your time.
