ntfs partitions problem


i have two phisical hard drives - hda, hdb
hda is partitioned to: hda1 (windows partition), hda5(ntfs), hda6(linux root), hda7(linux home), hda8(swap),hda9(ntfs)

i had some trouble with hda9 couse i installes ELIVE on it and it messed it up abit.
anyway, after playing some time with my FSTAB it came to the point that linux mount's the ntfs partitions but when i open them with nautilus (or any other file viewer) they seem empty. it's like linux lost the ability to show the files in the ntfs partitions. i know the files are there couse i can see them in windows.
what can i do to fix that?
i use xubuntu feisty beta with gnome menager.

this is my fstab file:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# -- This file has been automaticly generated by ntfs-config --
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# Entry for /dev/hda6 :
UUID=d8e153d9-b87c-4317-8e57-c04faa784a25 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
# Entry for /dev/hda7 :

# Entry for /dev/hda1 :

# Entry for /dev/hda5 :

/dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0

and this is fdisk -l:
