    Any help would be really appreciated.
    Try removing the locale option from fstab and see how it goes. (the driver should autodetect the encoding)

    Is your Ubuntu system configured for Japanese language?

    Hey thanks for the reply!
    I tried removing the local option from my fstab but still getting the same thing. My system is configured for Japanese.
    /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 ntfs-3g silent,umask=0,no_def_opts,allow_other 0 0
    Here is the line in my fstab as it is right now.
    I tried signing in in a Japanese session, but it made no difference.

    If you run:
    Code:
    locale -a
    what output do you get?

    Restore the locale option on your fstab and try using each of the available locales listed from this output.

    Well I got it working. When I put in the locale -a command it gave me an error message about my locales being messed up. I reinstalled and now it's working fine. Thanks a lot for your help. I wouldn't have realized what the problem was.

    Better solution : don't know. We should probably fill a bug against gnomevfs.

    Or can't you add a refresh statement in the script when the script mounts the ext drive? i've posted this problem about 8 pages ago

    Hi Givre,

    I am using 64 bit AMD. I have compiled the ntfs-3g code and it is working perfectly fine. But I am not able to load usb drive using ntfs-3g. I have tried downloading the nautilus script but since I am using 64 bit Ubuntu it is not allowing me to down load.

    Can you please share the script so that I can use it.

    TIA
    Prince.

    Prince,
    I've built the ntfs-3g code too, also the patched hal, but ntfs-3g isn't working that for me. I haven't tried the nautilus script as I use KDE, but I have been able to mount ntfs partitions. My man problem is that copying a vmware virtual disk, that was over 5GB in size, ntfs-3g stalled (without any error) after ~300MB. I left it there for a few hours, but nothing. At least ntfs-fuse will let me copy files that size to my ntfs removable hd, albeit slowly (about 20 times slower copying from etx3 to ntfs than copying from ntfs to ext3).

    Re: HOWTO: NTFS with read/write support using ntfs-3g (easy method)

    First, thank you givré for this well-written howto and all the support you've given the topic. Everything works fine for me, but I have a question. I have four NTFS partitions and a NTFS USB external hard drive. Now that I have ntfs-3g installed, all of those volumes appear on my desktop. In the past, only the USB external hard drive showed up. I really don't want the four NTFS partitions on the desktop, and I tried gconf-editor, but it also takes the external hard drive and CD/DVD icons off the desktop. So my question is, can I just use my old fstab file (fstab.bak) but still load fuse with the modules, then just access my NTFS partitions using the Nautilus script (ntfs-3g-nautilus-tools), the same way that I use for my external hard drive? That way the partitions won't be on my desktop, and I can just mount them with ntfs-3g when I need to write to them, which is seldom.

    Let me know if you see any problems with doing things this way, or if I'm missing an easier way of getting the icons off my desktop (while keeping icons for removable USB drives and optical drives).

    Thanks for all your help.

    Re: HOWTO: NTFS with read/write support using ntfs-3g (easy method)

    I've recently encountered a problem with the mount_with_ntfs-3g script and my USB external hard drive. The way it mounts, it gives the user and the group Read, Write, and eXecute permissions, but it gives NO permissions to others. The problem with this is that when I try to access my data in Windows, it says it doesn't have permission to use the file (it's an audio file, and it won't even read it).

    I've tried, unsuccessfully, to change the permissions in properties (both as a regular user and super user), but every time I check any of the permission boxes, they just automatically uncheck themselves immediately. I've also tried chmod o=rwx, but it doesn't change anything either.

    Does anyone know how to fix this? It's really been confusing me, and I need to be able to read & write data from both linux & windows.
