disk image lite image convert vhd or iso?
by David Mehler 22 Dec '17

22 Dec '17

Hello, I've got a disk image lite backup of a drive saved to a usb portable drive. What I'm wanting to do is mount that image either on a host system as an iso, or possibly as input to a virtual machine as a vhd to use live, i'm wanting to search said image for some missing files. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks. Dave.

Recent Clonezilla versions: problems with new file browser for target directory or source directory
by Eigeldinger Simon 22 Dec '17

22 Dec '17

Hi all, I just sent a mail to the devs to contact them about the issues with the new file browser. Anyone found a workaround or has no issues? The new file browser is a little bit confusing and not that accessible as with older versions. Additionally i dropped a mail to the grml devs to inform them about espeak not talking. Which prevents speakup from running. Greetings, Simon

Visual studio Code accessibility. Working with Arduino.
by Darragh Ó Héiligh 22 Dec '17

22 Dec '17

I really like the UI of visual Studio Code. It makes perfect sense and I really like that when using it with NVDA, the verbosity is just perfect! But I'm having a problem when trying to upload sketches to the Arduino. I'm not sure what that problem is as I'm not getting any details. There's nothing in the output window. Here are my questions. Can anyone assist please? 1. When uploading to the Arduino. Do I need to explicitly initialize the board? This wasn't necessary in previous IDE's. 2. Should the output window report on the success or the failure of uploading the sketch? 3. Is the bod rate and serial connection saved when the Visual studio code editor is restarted? I don't think it is. 4. When I show the serial port but I close the output window, how is it re-enabled again? There's no window menu. I generally just try the output window again. Any other tips appreciated.

Hi, Sounds good. Let's see when we have it here. :-) Will report back.

captive portal on ddwrt
by David Mehler 13 Dec '17

13 Dec '17

Hello, Has anyone set up a captive portal solution on ddwrt? This would be for one wlan segment only, in this case the guest network, I want that network going through the captive portal, not lan or the wl0 or wl1 network. I've tried enabling in two separate instances, not at the same time, chillispot, and wifidog, both of which the moment I turned them on, the guest network would not hand out dhcp leases. If anyone has done this please let me know. Thanks. Dave.

coppying files into system folders under windows 10
by Kathryn Jedynak 05 Dec '17

05 Dec '17

Hello All: Is there a way under windows 10 to copy system files into system folders? Where I work at, we need to update our Jaws scripts and copy them into the program data folder. We also need to copy files in to the \windows\system32 folder and the program files folder. The only work-around I found is to enable the local administrator account, log in to it, and copy the files that way. If anyone knows of another way, please let me know. Regards, Kathryn

Audio redirection gpo not applying
by Troy Hergert 30 Nov '17

30 Nov '17

Hi everyone, I wonder if anyone else has seen this issue and could tell me what they think might be going on. For many years I have had a group policy which enables audio redirection in remote desktop sessions applied to all the computers in my domain. The last couple of years approximately 50% of the computers are not enabling audio redirection in remote desktop sessions. The gpo I created is configured under computer configuration, policies, administrative templates, windows components, remote desktop services, remote desktop session host, device and resource redirection, allow audio and video playback redirection. This is enabled and applied to all computers. When the local machines are not receiving this properly, I have found the problem. I run services.ms sea and scroll down to the remote desktop services user mode port redirector. This service shows up as disabled. I can set it to automatic, then start it. Rebooting the computer the service remains enabled. Problem solved. Knowing how to resolve this is good, but I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas as to why the group policy is not taking care of this. Thanks
