clicking on my win partition does not open it, mandriva 2009 (Genome)
Hello all,
I am new to linux, I installed mandrive 2009 yesterday without any problem. I noticed that clicking on my win partition does not open it, mandriva 2009 (Genome). same happens when I try to open the drives from my computer. But I can access the drives' contents from /mnt folder. Am I doing something wrong or do I need to do something else to access my drives.
