The reason people would have suddenly experienced this behaviour in the wake of an upgrade is that Gutsy uses the new ntfs-3g driver, while Feisty did not.
When you try to mount a NTFS partition using the ntfs-3g driver, the driver does a sanity check to see it the Windows NTFS logfile is clean. When it is not clean, due to an improper shutdown or a removable drive not being properly removed, you get the feedback from the mount command shown the original post. If you are sure you shutdown Windows/removed drive correctly, please try again and see for sure. I hadn't used Windows in well over 6 months, but rebooting Windows then rebooting Gutsy resolved the issue. -- Error mounting NTFS volume https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151521 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
