fuse: failed to exec fusermount: Permission denied
fuse failed.  Common problems:
 - fuse kernel module not installed (modprobe fuse)
 - invalid options -- see usage message
If I run it as root, it works fine. Any ideas how I can make fusermount work with normal users?
I'm not using 5.10 yet, but on Hoary I found that fusermount was installed so only root could execute it - try
Code:
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/fusermount
