https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=293433#c8 --- Comment #8 from Péter Kerékfy <kerekfyp@komal.hu> 2007-08-03 07:12:08 MST --- Thanks Stephan, it works! But HAL behaves very strange on this point so I make this clear for now: Create the file /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-ntfs-policy.fdi with the following content: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <match key="volume.fstype" string="ntfs"> <match key="@block.storage_device:storage.hotpluggable" bool="true"> <merge key="volume.fstype" type="string">ntfs-3g</merge> <merge key="volume.policy.mount_filesystem" type="string">ntfs-3g</merge> <append key="volume.mount.valid_options" type="strlist">locale=</append> </match> </match> </device> </deviceinfo> Reboot, and then plug your external hard disk. Enjoy! But this wont work if you create the XML file under /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/. Why? Click here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/115768 and read the last but one post. It is a HAL bug/feature. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
