Ntfs-3g problem 1 and 2 are fixed in newer releases. The other problems are unrelated to ntfs-3g and Ubuntu nautilus problems are indeed reported by many people to ntfs-3g upstream. Please note that I/O errors are perfectly valid if there are storage problems, e.g. bad sectors, detached devices. The /var/log files could help to pinpoint the reason for the I/O errors. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: ntfs-3g => nautilus Status: Unconfirmed => Needs Info -- ntfs-3g i/o errors writing large audio files to usb hard drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/111563 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 111563] Re: ntfs-3g i/o errors writing large audio files to usb hard drive
If you have an older ntfs-3g release than version 1.328 then the slowness is an ntfs-3g limitation and you should upgrade to at least version 1.328 or preferable version 1.417. The maximum supported NTFS file size and the volume size is 16777216 GB (16 EByte) but typically your hardware and Linux limits this to 8192-262144 GB. Windows can't support more either at the moment (maximum 262144 GB = 256 TB). -- ntfs-3g i/o errors writing large audio files to usb hard drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/111563 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 111563] Re: ntfs-3g i/o errors writing large audio files to usb hard drive
Szabolcs: the link you provided mentions that the patch "was approved by Alex Larsson and committed to trunk and gnome-2-18 branch." I'm using Ubuntu Feisty, which uses GNOME 2.18, so it seems that I should not need to apply the patch. Please advise if I'm correct to think so. Florent or Szabolcs: Also, since Florent stated that this is a limitation of ntfs-3g, please let me know the max recommended hdd size and the max recommended file size for transferring to ntfs volumes using ntfs-3g. I thought leaving the default ntfs format on my new drive would be a good idea so I can access the music, isos, etc., from M$win at work, but maybe I'll need to use ext2ifs (no journaling support, though) or set up a samba share on a running virtual machine when I need those files. Xfs is supposed to be better for large audio files, etc, anyway. But that would be extremely inconvenient, though. Finally, I should point out that I never had ANY speed issues using the plain old ntfs-3g driver in Edgy (sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 ...). These issues first occurred for me using ntfs-config / mount.ntfs-3g in Feisty. In Edgy, I would move around large files, but only to partitions of a 60GB or 80GB drive (not 500GB like now).

For the speed problem: you need at least ntfs-3g version 1.328 but 1.417 is preferable, moreover you probably also need the nautilus performance fix at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=363400 -- ntfs-3g i/o errors writing large audio files to usb hard drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/111563 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Not an ntfs-config nug, but a limitation of the ntfs-3g, the NTFS driver. ** Also affects: ntfs-3g (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Changed in: ntfs-config (upstream) Status: Unconfirmed => Rejected -- ntfs-3g i/o errors writing large audio files to usb hard drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/111563 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
