OK, after messing around with it for an hour, I managed to figure out a
way to fix this. This is just a hack until some things with nautilus and
hal are fixed up, but you can try this:
Open up /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi and paste this in at the end
(but before </deviceinfo>):
<device>
<match key="volume.fstype" string="ntfs">
<merge key="volume.is_mounted" type="bool">true</merge>
<merge key="volume.mount_point" type="string">/media/Windows</merge>
<merge key="volume.policy.mount_filesystem" type="strlist">fuse</merge>
<merge key="storage.removable" type="bool">false</merge>
<merge key="volume.ignore" type="bool">false</merge>
</match>
</device>
Of course, replace /media/Windows with the mount point. This won't work
if you have multiple NTFS partitions, change the match element to match
your device. Please let me know if this works :-)
Cheers, Samuel
