I have installed the following 2 packages on Centos 5.6, and used GParted to successfully create an 8GB NTFS partition, on some unused HDD space. Installed Packages Name : ntfsprogs Arch : i386 Version : 1.13.1 Release : 6.el5 Size : 1.1 M Repo : installed Summary : NTFS filesystem libraries and utilities URL : http://www.linux-ntfs.org/ Name : ntfsprogs-gnomevfs Arch : i386 Version : 1.13.1 Release : 6.el5 Size : 20 k Repo : installed Summary : NTFS GNOME virtual filesystem module URL : http://www.linux-ntfs.org/ I'm running Xfce 4, and when I try to mount the NTFS file system, I get an error box with 'ntfs - unknown filetype' I've done a complete reboot of this box. Are there some packages I have missing?
