Fuse missing?
i want to try a remote filesystem setup using fuse. the problem is that, whenever i mount the filesystem to be used, an error occur saying that it can't find fuse or fuse module is not loaded. however, upon doing lsmod, fuse shows up in there. any hint on how can i cover this up? thanks in advance.

Have you tried to see if there's any module errors, either when loading the module or when mounting the filesystem?

You might be missing the fuse userspace tools, like "fusermount". Fuse is part of the 2.6 kernel but in order to use it, you also need the fuse utils.

I found the fuse.ko in the src folder of my kernel which is 2.6.16.13. However, it doesn't get loaded during boot time and I still have to load it manually using insmod. What I was trying to do actually is to try GmailFS, unfortunately it needs fuse module to be loaded. I finally found a solution as I have said by loading it manually but I wonder if anyone can point out how can I load it automatically at boot time.

Add this line at the end of the file "/etc/rc.d/rc.modules" :
Code:
/sbin/modprobe fuse
When booting, Slackware will now load the fuse module automatically.
