Public bug reported:

A ntfs partition on and usb drive with rw folder/drive permissions can not be 
mounted rw. Note that the problem occurs on Ubuntu 11.10 on my dual core 
amd64x2, but not on my old laptop with Lubuntu 11.10 on single core PIII. Both 
system were updated on 20-Dec-2011.
I have a bypass, I use Windows or Lubuntu, but I would like to get the recently 
introduced bug in Ubuntu solved.
See the middle part of the next command line excerpt:
