Hi all,

I have some problems accessing NTFS USB devices from Dolphin.

If I mount by hand the device, mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 /media/disk I can access to the disk from Dolphin.

mount command reports: /dev/sdc1 on /media/disk type fuseblk (rw,allow_other,blksize=512)

When the same disk is mounted through Dolphin (by clicking on the disk icon), I cannot see any content.
mount command reports: /dev/sdc1 on /media/FLS-U2-300 type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=512,default_permissions)

As you can see, mount command reports different configurations. I suspect the extra parameters used by Dolphin causing problems but I don't know how to configure KDE to change the mount options.

This problem is new to Slackware 13.1. My previous 13.0 configuration had not that problem.

My system is configured to use UTF-8 (french) and I have no problem to access my fixed NTFS disk.

Is this a problem related to Polkit?


Thanks for you help.
