I recently installed the latest version of Truecrypt on my SUSE 11.0
system. Truecrypt seems to be working OK, at least in part. I can
create an encrypted file or device (USB stick) that will mount perfectly
on an XP system.
I have been unable to get any Truecrypt device or file to mount on my
SUSE machine. Instead of mounting I get :
"fusermount: mount failed: Operation not permitted"

Now I've run this as a regular user. I've tried it as root. I've
uninstalled the fuse package and reinstalled it by compiling from
source. I've uninstalled Truecrypt and recompiled it from source. I
always get the same error.
The /dev/fuse device is there and the permissions look right. The
fusermount utility is there and installed with the setUID bit turned ON.
So far I haven't been able to find any more meaningful error in dmesg or
in /var/log/message.

It's got to be something simple to fix, I just can't find it. Any ideas
would be appreciated

Thanks and Regards!

I've not tried Truecrypt or fusermount so this is a guess, but given the
permission problems as root, my first suspicion would be apparmor.

Do you have that installed?
