Rep:
I just downloaded the FUSE source code, compiled and installed it. Then I downloaded the new ntfs-3g, compiled and installed it. You only need your kernel source code.
If your ntfs-3g came included with your distribution, then you just have to wait until they package it.

to find out your version:
mount.ntfs-3g --help
I'm puzzled. The response to this command for a year-old version of Puppy Linux is "ntfs-3g 1.417", but the most recent release is 1.2531, released on May 29, 2008, according to the release history on the ntfs-3g web site.
Correction: That's OK, they just use an unconventional sequence of version numbers.
