how do I enable write access with the normal ntfs drivers?
You don't. You need to find out how the speed is from ntfs to your linux desktop.
Btw, is it faster when you transfer files from ntfs-3g to desktop?
yes. copying files FROM the ntfs-3g partition is normal speed. (well its fast enough or whatever, it doesn't take ages)
I'm stuck. Maybe givré or someone more knowledgeable can help you with this. On my IDE Drive A to IDE Drive B, I transferred 125mb in 8 sec. On the safe side, I wouldn't tyy transfering anymore files to either ntfs partitions untill you get this solved.
Hi, boys... really nice work that you've done here.... everything works fine with my local hdds!
but theres somehow a problem with my USB Device. Its a maxtor one touch III 300 GB drive. Ubuntu automounts it to name Data Box... but when I try to switch to ntfs-3g, tehre comes only the developers message that my device is not supported. I just don know why... because its just a normal usb hdd...
Maybe you know. If you need further information plz reply..
Thx
Ok, I fixed the problem by myself.
The script seems to have problems when tehere is a " " in the device name. I just renamed it under windows to databox an now i can mount with ntfs-3g with no problems
I've narrowed my problem down to the partition. I tried mounting my other ntfs partition with ntfs-3g and tranferring files to it was fine. Could it be that the partition's size is bothering everything? it's like 183GB.

I've not been able to download from the mentioned source.. i keep getting host not found. Maybe its because of my proxy, anyway, could someone upload it on a different server?
Thanks.
