This is a red herring. Linux has been able to read NTFS for a while now. ntfs-3g is to enable writing of NTFS, which isn't included in the Linux kernel. I think the reason it worked is because the installation of ntfs-3g may have modified fstab? -- Mark Lanctot -

Are you sure it's that directory that the plugin wants to write to? Because I agree that if slimserver is running as slimserver, and the directory is chmod 777 with user slimserver, then it should definitely be able to write to that directory... -- bukharin -

You may want to try a line similar to mine at the end. I'm not sure about UUID entries and I notice that it appears there, but try to mount it in a /media/music directory anyway. Create the directory first. I thought that in order to process fstab you first needed to type "sudo mount -a" but th
