Hi I just wanted to add that if you get "command not found" regarding modinfo try:
/sbin/modinfo

this may be useful also:

there is the off chance that somehow you installed an
ntfs driver for a different kernel than the one you're
running, lets just double check that. run the
following:

$ modinfo ntfs
$ uname -a

on my machine it prints the following:
$ modinfo ntfs
filename:
/lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/fs/ntfs/ntfs.ko
author: Anton Altaparmakov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
description: NTFS 1.2/3.x driver - Copyright (c)
2001-2006 Anton Altaparmakov
version: 2.1.27

vermagic: 2.6.17-10-generic SMP mod_unload 586
REGPARM gcc-4.1
depends:
srcversion: 79FF905C6FD06F467ACDEDB

$ uname -r
2.6.17-10-generic

note that the kernel versions are identical (the
vermagic parameter).

if they are identical, try to load the module
explicitly before mounting, like this:
# modprobe ntfs

and to check that it got loaded:
$ lsmod|grep ntfs
