Hello,

I'm using 11.3 KDE opensuse. My problem is, I can write on my windows
drive as root user but not as normal user. Is there any way by which I
can write on those drives as normal user?


The content of your file /etc/fuse.conf should be : user_allow_other
and you will be able to write as user.

No such file.

Not documented:

Elessar:~ # apropos fuse.conf
Elessar:~ #


Perhaps there is a wiki page about this at oS, but that is impossible to
find. Searching for ntfs
finds that ntfs is a restricted format...


Google leads me to

Hmm. I don't have fuse-utils installed. Do you?

However

# zypper install fuse-utils
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
Package 'fuse' not found.
Resolving package dependencies...

Note: its not saying 'fuse-utils' not found.
Odd.

maybe some other repository ....
but http://software.opensuse.org/search doesn't tell me where

Maybe its not in use any more?


As for the OP problem - yes permissions - permissions of the mount most
likely.

# mount
/dev/sda1 on /windows/C type fuseblk
(rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096,default_permissions)


# ls -ld /windows/C
drwxr-xr-x 1 root users 8192 2005-05-02 12:17 /windows/C
# ls -l /windows/C/boot.ini
-rw-r--r-- 1 root users 211 2005-03-30 14:42 /windows/C/boot.ini
