Feature changed by: Tim Edwards (tk83) Feature #310229, revision 6 Title: Add write support for NTFS partitions, using the NTFS-3G. openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Genix Info (genixinfo) Description: My suggestion is to add write support on NTFS partitions, for normal users (not root). 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. + 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). -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310229
