In what sense you can't use your ntfs volume? Have you tried manual mount? If so, knowing the command you used and the output you got as result would be useful. If you are trying to mount the drive via using an vfs from one of the main desktops it would be useful to know which one. To sum up: info about what exactly you are doing and what do you get as result.

of course i have tried manual mount, i am a simple person, i dont mind to mounted manually every time i have to used, but the problem is this one:

Andres / # mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/usb1
Andres / # cd mnt
Andres mnt # ls
cdrom floppy proc usb1 usb2
Andres mnt # cd usb1
Andres usb1 # ls
AUTOEXEC.BAT IO.SYS System Volume Information pagefile.sys
Archivos de programa Intel WINDOWS temp
Bootfont.bin MSDOS.SYS autorun.inf vista.ico
CONFIG.SYS NTDETECT.COM boot.ini
Documents and Settings RECYCLER ntldr
Andres usb1 # cd RECYCLER/
Andres RECYCLER # ls
S-1-5-21-842925246-1202660629-725345543-1003
Andres RECYCLER # cd S-1-5-21-842925246-1202660629-725345543-1003/
Andres S-1-5-21-842925246-1202660629-725345543-1003 # ls
INFO2 desktop.ini
Andres S-1-5-21-842925246-1202660629-725345543-1003 # rm desktop.ini
rm: cannot remove `desktop.ini': Read-only file system

or this one:

mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda4 /media/windows
FATAL: Module fuse not found.
fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first
(and of course i have already tried modprobe fuse)

modprobe fuse
FATAL: Module fuse not found.

this is an example of what i get. i have already select the FUSE option in kernel configuration, already emerge this sys-fs/ntfs3g and this one sys-fs/fuse.

but when i turn on the computer, when the option are loading in one part says "FUSE not found" (or something like that) tried modprobe fuse. so i already get out of ideas, and thanks for any help...

p.s
what i want to do with mi ntfs partion is read/write

Are you sure you are using the same kernel you are compiling? If you enabled /proc/config.gz when configuring your kernel you can see if FUSE is compiled into the current kernel using this:

Code:

$ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i fuse

This command will tell you the compilation date for your kernel:

Code:

uname -v

Double check the hour and date and see if you are truly using the kernel you think you are using. If not, double check the /usr/src/linux symlink, make sure it points to the kernel version you are wanting to use, check its menuconfig, recompile and reinstall that kernel using "make && make install modules_install" and make sure you have a valid entry in your grub.conf file for it.

That modprobe refuses to load it is not necesarily a bad thing, FUSE can be embedded in the kernel rather than being built as a module. Other than that, the only thing I can suggest is to use ntfs-3g -orw instead of mount to mount the drives.

when configuring your kernel you can see if FUSE is compiled into the current kernel using this:

Code:

$ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i fuse

when i put the code above ,i get this:
gzip: /proc/config.gz: No such file or directory

This command will tell you the compilation date for your kernel:

Code:

uname -v

this is disturbing using the code above, i get this:
#2 SMP Thu Jan 28 17:48:43 UTC 2010

what i have done is this:

Code:

# cd usr/src/linux
# make menuconfig 

File systems  --->  
<*> FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) support

# make && make modules_install

# cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.31-gentoo-r6

so far i think i have done it ok.

but i read the Gentoo manual, an it's said, when a kernel is reinstalled, its not necessary to overwrite the files, just run make install after compile the kernel and automatically copy the necessary files and adjust the LILO configuration.

Code:

# make install
sh /usr/src/linux-2.6.31-gentoo-r6/arch/x86/boot/install.sh 2.6.31-gentoo-r6 arch/x86/boot/bzImage \System.map "/boot"

but i dont have nothing in /arch/x86 because i using a dual core system, so i change it to /arch/x86_64 and looks like this:

Code:

# sh /usr/src/linux-2.6.31-gentoo-r6/arch/x86/boot/install.sh 2.6.31-gentoo-r6 arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage \System.map "/boot"

for finish ,reboot the system, an acording to every thing i read its done but, nothig its done so please can tell me what i doing wrong???
