Did you mean ntfs-3g ?

i downloaded the "ntfs-3g" package but when i tried to install it, it told me it needs "fuse" package.
but when i tried installing "fuse" it gave me this error message
"configure: error: ./configure failed for kernel"

Ok, so how did you fix it. I have both programs installed and still can not write to an ntfs partition. I get an error message about I have no permission.

you must install the dkms-fuse first. and you must have root privilege off course.
