Hello, I can write to an ntfs partion if mounting it by hand with 'mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdf5 /mnt/xp'. But if I use the mount option from the kde Storage Media panel applet (kdebase-3.5.4-13.6.el5.centos) then the partion will be mounted without write support. So how to say kde and CentOS to use ntfs-3g and not ntfs? Maybe by changing some links? Thank you very much. regards Olaf

I can mount ntfs with write enabled by the console command above. But kde (Storage Media panel applet) always mounts the partion with ntfs module and never uses ntfs-3g. I think it's an kde problem but I don't know how to solve this. If I remove the ntfs module then kde still ignores ntfs-3g and doesn't mount the partition with an "unknown file system" error any more. regards Olaf
