If only some files are missing then please upgrade to at least NTFS-3G 2009.1.1 which has full, built-in Unicode UTF-8 conversion support. If the top directory is completely empty then it’s very probably that the NTFS volume is not mounted. There is a great utility, called ntfs-config, which is reported to work fine on at least Ubuntu.If you use KDE and get the “TODO: have to rethink extra options” error message then open `media:/’ in Konqueror, choose `Storage Media’, right click the removable device, select ‘Properties’, select the ‘Mounting’ tab then unselect the ‘Mount as user’ option.ln -s /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g /sbin/mount.ntfs Creating a symbolic link, as shown below, is reported to solve automount on many distributions. Workarounds: Either of the following could help. Solution: If you would like to have this feature in your distribution then please ask your distribution vendor or developers to support this feature. The distribution and other developers are working on item 1, 2, and 3, which solutions are vastly different depending on all kind of preferences. This is a huge and very complex task itself. The NTFS-3G file system developers are working only on item 4. Start the NTFS-3G driver with the user and distribution preferred mount options.This is what should happen on a higher level: The NTFS hotplug and automount support is highly distribution specific regarding the used technologies and the preferred mount configuration.
