Hi, after some time trying other distros (since i got a new computer than can run them) I came back to antix.

I have an ntfs partition on sda 1 that have win xp 64 on it, and the system only mount it as root.

I remember having this problem with M8 but i dont remember how i fixed it.

pcmanfm says to me:
<i>org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.UnknownFailure</i>
twice and then tells that the directory doesnt exist

here is my fstab

/dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 ntfs-3g noauto,users,gid=users,locale=pt_BR.utf8,dmask=002,fmask=113,relatime

# Pluggable devices are handled by uDev, they are not in fstab
/dev/sda5 / ext3 defaults,noatime 1 1
/dev/sda6 swap swap sw,pri=1 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0622 0 0

# Dynamic entries below

/dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2 vfat noauto,users,gid=users,dmask=002,fmask=113,relatime 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1 vfat noauto,users,gid=users,dmask=002,fmask=113,relatime 0 0
/dev/cdrom /media/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,users,exec,ro 0 0
/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,users,exec,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /media/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 noauto,users,exec,ro 0 0
/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 noauto,users,exec,ro 0 0

i dont know if this is fstab problem or policekit.

looks like the time i spent away from antix made me lose the"touch", Im ashamed.

But its good to be back!

I would apreciate some help on this issue, thanks!

I don't have ntfs, but shouldn't the line end in 0 0?

/dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 ntfs-3g noauto,users,gid=users,locale=pt_BR.utf8,dmask=002,fmask=113,relatime 0 0

Oops, i belive i cut it con a ctrl-x ctrl-v.

but that is not the solution __{{emoticon}}__

Hi,"patrício".
I take it as it is and open pcmanfm as root to mount my NTFS partition, then close it and use it normally.
This is a problem with devicekit or something like that that kept changing and mounting in pcmanfm would always break. I read that in pcman's own LXDE blog.
But good news to you (us):

and should have this issue resolved and many features added. I believe it will be available soon as a Debian package in sid. For now there's only the tar file.

Oi secipolla,

since i ill have to wait for pcmanfm2 ( i tried thunar but didnt work to) i will make a work-around (dirty work)

i ill enable pcmandfm on sudo and autostart it and close on the startup.

hope this works.

Should i mark this post as not solutionable or something?

Thanks

you could try to mount the partition with the force flag in fstab. that's what i used when i had ntfs.

I posted about this in a blog a few months ago. I think this is the solution for you.

PCManFM won't mount removable devices after the last dist-upgrade:

edit as ROOT:
su -c 'geany /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf'
replace YOUR_USER_NAME with your user..!

Thank you ICE-M and teresaejunior,

I tried both hints, but no results __{{emoticon}}__

I mount an ntfs partition on my laptop and it mounts fine. Here is the line for that partition, it mount inside my /home.

/dev/sda1 /home/eriefisher/Windows ntfs-3g noatime,defaults 0 0

YESSSS!!!!

Thank you eriefisher!!!

Its working just fine now.

Good stuff.
