Can you drop this file in /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/
and delete the 20-ntfs-config-write-policy.fdi file that is there?
It should fix the problem I think. This is what Ubuntu uses in
their ntfs3g package to solve this problem.
Sorry that didn't work
I think you might want to re-plug your harddisk or restart hal
with this new fdi file.
Tried that as well.I will probably reinstall it tomorrow
After a reinstall it works using this file.THANK YOU
do we want to make this the default Jan or stay with upstream?
