BTW I changed the title of this request as the original one is misleading (NTFS-3G write support has been in Opensuse for a few years now). #5: Wallacy Freitas (wallacyf) (2010-09-16 05:11:33) It is extremely unproductive to plug a pendrive formatted in NTFS and then having to mount it manually to obtain write support. There is no reason today to mount only in reading. #6: Tom Zöhner (zoehneto) (2010-09-16 15:39:01) This feature is also very important, since new users can't possibly know that only root can write to NTFS partitions. #7: Gigih aji ibrahim (bungcip) (2010-09-27 11:08:18) Mount NTFS partitions user-writeable by default is very important feature for desktop usage. #9: Jedi Beeftrix (jedibeeftrix) (2010-12-05 13:22:42) (reply to #7) very much agreed, especially so for dual-booters. #8: Alex Bars (alexdbars) (2010-12-01 08:26:47) I agree/thanks!! #10: Denis Kuplyakov (denerkup) (2011-01-19 16:04:31) It's very important feature for me. #11: Jörg Schmela (herz-von-hessen) (2011-02-25 18:18:58) I also wich to have this Feature as default. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310229

As already happens in FAT32. Discussion: #1: Lee Matheson (oldcpu) (2010-07-31 00:08:15) I agree that DEFAULT (upon installation) write support for NTFS partitions should be in place and one should NOT be forced to hand edit the /etc/fstab file to obtain write support. #2: Jimmy Berry (boombatower) (2010-07-31 01:05:38) I would have to agree as well. #3: Alex Minton (minton) (2010-07-31 12:21:41) Yes, at this particular moment default settings of ntfs-3g are good enough to not add something more in fstab. So I am all for mounting NTFS partitions with "defaults" option. #4: Tim Edwards (tk83) (2010-09-14 16:14:46) Agreed too, it's even worse for USB drives formatted as NTFS, there's no reliable way to get them onto read-write.
