fuse is suplied in the distro ready to install in rpm form. Why compile it?
There are some (few) exceptions. And then, there are errors in those things you try to install or your options or who knows.
Anyway, I have never tried checkinstall with the kernel or kernel modules. don't worry abt that if u want get update for fuse or ntfs-3g u can visit
for update reason(coz there are some new features added), AFAIK there is no problem to compile from source even the developers+community of ntfs-3g developers suggest that way you can google this keyword "Re: [ntfs-3g-devel] Bug report: folders with non-ASCII letters aren't displayed" from: "Udrescu Gabriel sau G@By" <gabi.udr.lin@gmail.com> this is the message: You should consider using the latest ntfs-3g rather than a precompiled rpm pack. it's much better, because openSUSE developers can't keep up with ntfs-3g (or other) developers. even if you prefer Yast or other packmangager, compiling the fuse kernel-module & ntfs-3g is a much better than installing a precompiled pack. I've had a similar problem with PCLinuxOS repos & rpm packs. this http://software.opensuse.org/download/filesystems/openSUSE_10.2/i586/ btw i succeded to checkinstall the latest stable ntfs-3g-1.417 (so i can uninstall it easily if there are problem, but as far i know there isn't major problem) cheers, chikaTambun nb: tell me if u have objection for receiving private message to your account, i do this reason. to give u quick response. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
